I have decided to go all in and pursue my dream of becoming an airline pilot. I am 36 and used to be an executive in the corporate environment pulling in a six figure salary, but just told my boss last Friday to "take this job and shove it!" Boy did that feel good. I was even on such a power trip that I told my girlfriend to **** off (she was freeloading off of me anyway). I was never happy at my job, so I decided to quit and withdraw all of my retirement savings so I could move to Florida and go to flight school debt free. I plan on selling my house and Jaguar soon. I just sold my BMW last week (but still have the Harley!) and also had a garage sale this last weekend to get rid of anything and everything that isnt irreplaceable. At the garage sale somebody even made a comment about my dog Brutus, so I sold him too. I didnt mind selling Brutus too much, because he always used to piss on my couch (which I sold also!).

I plan on moving to Daytona Beach in about a month to start flight training and will be traveling on my Harley with nothing but the bare necessities. After I sell my house and other car and with the money from the garage sale, I will be able to pay for all of flight school and even budgeted $100 a week for food. Hopefully I will be at an airline in less than a year. Its a big change, but I cannot wait. It will be so nice in between flights to sip on a corona on the beach and smoke a cigar while watching the ladies in bikinis!!
Alright, who quit checking ID's at the door? This can't be serious.
