I wouldn't wan't to be an airline pilot for all the money in the world, i find it a very hard life, problems to have a normal family life, and at the end of your career, all you can do is flying, nothing much more.
Commercial Aviation is not just about being an airline pilot!! It is also not about the financial reward.

There is all sorts of commercial flying:

Biz Jets
Test Pilot
Ferry pilot
Bush Pilot

blah blah blah
