I'd love to know where this misconception is from that taxi drivers earn as much as train drivers or similar. For an average 95 hours a week as an owner last year I struggled to match a train drivers 40 hour weekly wage!!!!! Hence the wannabee status ; both myself and my family would love me to work a turbo prop FO's hours.
I have to agree with the majority that if you have the obsession to fly you will find a way IF you try hard enough
