Question am i insane to want to be a freight pilot?

hi,
i'm currently interested in )at some point when the industry is better) becoming a freight pilot. but is it any good? i like the idea of short-haul flights flying the 747s or whatever for short periods (get bored with too long a flight!). what is it like? fun, dull? also, do yuo have to be a cigar-smoking big trucker type? or is it like passenger plane style pilots? also, what is the pay like? and where in europe is a good place to fly freight?
thanks, any info greatly appreciated.
