Question Time to ditch that flying career?

Question for you - a change of lifestyle that many out there may also have had to face recently.

I was caught out between jobs by the Ansett crash, making my 2,200 hours (1,100 Chieftain) seem like a pretty useless asset.

I am now in a menial job earning twice what I was earning as a GA pilot (now clearing $1,000pw minimum) and I have the opportunity to return to Uni and re-train in a lucrative, flexible white collar profession while maintaining the obscene income.

What would you do?
