Yuge USA retirement numbers in the next ten years for those who hang on.
If you are 21 you have a great career in front of you.
If you are 41 and just thinking about getting in go look at anything else but this.
If you just soloed at 16 you might be #1 at any major airline that survives.....the world is your oyster.
That said get a four year college degree in a real major that can support you and a family if something like this rears it's ugly head once again.
Best of luck big, small, heavies, supers and all.
