Chill out - there are many pilots out there who were 19 when they first started! The fact is that some people have parents who can help them with money and some don't. Some people have a father who works for an airline and can get their son/daughter a job easily, some don't. It's life and theres always someone you're going to be jealous of - it's nature! Just remember that there's usually someone who's also jealous of you!
The newspaper was approached by the boys father who wanted them to make a story of it! The same goes for the local newspaper where the family live! I hear the lad isn't too impressed with all this but then again, reading this thread, neither would I!
Jerry's Final Thought: Some people get dealt a great hand, some not so good, some pretty bad. All that matters is how you go about making sure you achieve what you set out to do. Forget about the 19 year old flying 737s and think about you and how you're going to make sure you achieve what you want to do. That's the only way you'll make yourself happy!
