I'm a pilot at a regional making 90K$ a year. Job is cool and everything, but I don't imagine myself flying at 60 y.o. with this job's tempo.

I have a secondary goal of spending more time with family (and kids too) once I hit 35 y.o. maximum (I'm 27 rn).


What should I put my money into?

Delusional. It only takes 2 months to become a private pilot. Fuck being an airline pilot, flying biplanes and water planes is so low skill a monkey can do it.

You do all of that and you'll be fine.

I'll be flying for a much better airline

Well 35 from 27 is 8 years, which is a lot. I'll eventually bid reserve, get paid 70 hrs anyway even if flying less. I'm also a CFII.
