This whole thread is not very encouraging. I love aviation, but I don't think I can accept such a low salary for so much time away. I have a college degree with a major in economics, minor in business administration. I am currently a CFI with 600 hours. My peers are all accepting jobs for twice this pay and will be making closer to 100K within 5 years. It almost seems irresponsible to work for that type of money even though thats what I would like to do more than anything in the world.

How do you guys live on these type of salaries?
