Money is definately not the final answer in Corporate GA, all well and good working for some s**t hot IT company or some of our eastern european friends, if the company is either going bust or you are being constantly watched by some customs/ IRS outfit. And hence you end up permanently lookig for another job.
GA is very much looking at which shade of brown is it on the other side of the fence. The figures that have been quoted on other posts are fairly good ballpark, and most of the comments are very valid, if you are aiming at doing your own type rating, don't forget Savannah is not the only place to do a type rating, there are good prices to be had at Dallas, and also CAE in Dubai.
