Young Helicopter Pilots.....Listen up!  

Having the almighty buck makes life much easier. For years and years I made nothing flying helicopters. Some great jobs and fun flying. Now, I make 4 times the pay of when I started and the job is not so much fun. In fact I fly for fun on the side. 

I agree with the poster, get a job in the airlines. When you can get an airplane or buy into an airplane on the side and do your "fun" flying there. Make as much money as you can because your life will be easier. Plus, you can help others out with money if the almightly dollar makes you so miserable.
