I have come to realize... alot of the people who post in the teen misc come from very rich families

LankedOut · 11-09-2009, 01:06 PM

**** I wish a could get a 100k salary one day, that would be mean.

Jackswack · 11-09-2009, 01:17 PM

rofl 230k a year as a pilot..... wtf are you smoking? Do you even know the salary caps of a federal employee....? I don't even know what rank you stop flying but even the MILREP at NATO, a ADMIRAL doesn't make over 200k a year....

.. what other reason is there?
my dream is to change the world... one smile at a time.

PS the pilot thing seems 10x more badass with a legit salary

nilekyle · 11-09-2009, 01:28 PM

do what ever one you would be more happy doing, they both make fine salaries. i dont think you should ask the teenmisc for there oppinion because then you would be picking the one that would 'impress' more people and it wouldnt be for yourself.

IT would be very hard seeing your family as a fighter pilot.

YEt I am a bit biased since I am going to school for surgical/cosmetic dentistry

i want a wife, 2-3 kids. my hours will be good as a pilot as i am natl guard and we fly maybe 3-4 times a week.. my base protects the entire west coast from the air, so not much danger is present except in training missions and drug plan intercepts...

Don't pick a life career just because it's where the money's at. Do what you enjoy bro.

Starboardrwr223 · 11-09-2009, 06:30 PM

I can't make your life decisions for you but I will put this in. I have been considering military but recently i have thought about considering a path with more money, not because I'm selfish and hungry for money but because I care about my family and friends allot and know that if they ever got in trouble I would want to to write a check out and be at there side. But I know with military comes great respect, structure (which I love) and the knownledge of knowing that unemployment is a nonexistant word when your in mil, literally jobs everywhere to keep you busy. I'm in this dilema to, idk what I would do to get rich but I KNOW I'm smart enough to do it.

Starboardrwr223 · 11-09-2009, 06:34 PM

Also 100k a year is decent. You rich ****s really need to think about it, sure younwont get your fancy iPhone, BMW, and a wardrobe of ralph Lauren but it keeps you comfortable. My dad makes 180k a year and we have 5 plp in our family, I still am happy.

Number_Seven · 11-09-2009, 06:34 PM

If I could fly a jet all day, I would be happy making just enough money to pay for my food and gym membership.

ya your right, but i would enjoy being an ortho..
just not as much obviously as flying a jet that can pull 9 g's and go 1800mph..

ya in my case with the guard i can have an outside job on top of flying so i will have more income. but it wont be a super high paying job. It wont be hard finding one thou cus ill be an officer lol. im smart too... im leaning torwards the pilot tbh atm.

MHurricane · 11-09-2009, 06:56 PM

my dad makes 100k, arewedoinitrite?

I agree with him totally. (Didn't read past that post, so I don't know if you answered that or not)

But either job is enough money to live. Do what you think you would enjoy most.

AnhYeuMy · 11-09-2009, 07:01 PM

Then again I guess it also depends on when you're willing to settle down and have a family and what not.

If you intend on getting married and starting a family anytime soon, you'll probaby be better off as an ortho. I think you'd live more comfortable with that choice in more than one ways.

okay im gonna be honest with you guys.. im not trying to brag or anything so dont flame me.
i know either job is enough to live. But one of my life goals is to make more money than my father does. HE IS EXTREMELY WELL OFF... pilot idt would get me that unless i landed a really good job along side it.

ya, thanks for input man. I just want to live the very comfortable life that i do now and provide that or more for my own kids one day

AHeroAFake · 11-09-2009, 07:09 PM

Let's see, fighter piolet? Dangerous much? No one is going to be shooting at you if your an orthodontist.

Unless you pull the wrong tooth?

AnhYeuMy · 11-09-2009, 07:11 PM

Ah, well since you gave me honesty, then I'll give you honesty:

I honestly think you'll have a better overall life as an Ortho. Don't get me wrong, it'd be badass being a fighter pilot, but for how long? It seems like it'd be a time-demanding job, and also risks outweigh everything else. As an orthodontist you'll make loads of money, have a nice house/cars, support your whole family, and make more than your father.
Do ortho bro.

ya i think your right man. ill make the decesion when i have my degree in 3 years or so. But the respect i would get as a pilot would be insane. i know several personally as family friends, they are like gods no joke. I would be a pilot until about age 45-50. then i would just be a colonel or brigadier general on my base as commander

+ i can have a job outside of being a pilot cus the guard is part time... it just wouldnt be a super high paying job. perhaps a banker or something of that sort, cus my dad is in the bank industry.

AnhYeuMy · 11-09-2009, 07:29 PM

Well, atleast you still have a good chunk of time to decide everything, definatly a plus.

A lot can change in three years, thought-wise.

samsuperjew · 11-09-2009, 07:32 PM

do something that you dont consider a job, but something that you enjoy doing

money shouldn't' be that big of an issue, we live in a 5 bedroom 3 bathroom house 10 minutes from the ocean on a 60k/year salary

Sorry bro, but is that why you live in Fresno the biggest ****hole in California.

umadbraa · 11-09-2009, 07:47 PM

ortho income at 1mil? i highly doubt that. if you want to live a more relaxed lifestyle go with ortho, if you want a more intense and fun lifestyle go with pilot. i cant decide for you though.

edit: do you have any experience on the careers? because ive been working with my dad since i was 10 or so and already know his business, which is private investment in real esate, inside and out for the most part, and i plan on running many of our investments when i finish with college. and i am solid on my career choice.

TrainH. · 11-09-2009, 07:48 PM

i'd say ortho, if you get good enough you could easily make $150k+ a year (as you said). as stated before, being a pilot would be awesome everyday and you would get respect, but i still say ortho. if i was a wife or child (oh lawd strong visualization) i'd worry every mission about something happening, just something to remember for the future.

plus, being a swole ortho = pretty epic. especially one who competes.

BigNF · 11-09-2009, 07:50 PM

you wont get killed on the job being an orthodontist

I mean everyone has different interests I guess I just don't see the enjoyment in working with people's mouths doing the same thing every single day. Flying a jet for a career would bring so much more life experience.

I_Enigma_I · 11-09-2009, 07:53 PM

choose what interests you the most brah.

Yes you will. 100k a year is plenty for all of that. Sure you won't fully pay the bmw off, but you have plenty of money to finance or lease it. And I wish my dad made 180k a year you lucky fuk. I have all that **** but the BMW making 7.80 an hour lol.

crimedawg40 · 11-09-2009, 08:03 PM

Ortho.. It's not a terribly boring job, you said you'd enjoy it yourself, they pay is better, you'll make more than your Dad, and you won't fauking die in a jet

ya, your right man. its just somehting that when the time comes to choose, it will be a though one. i would do both but the pilots training takes too much time and i would be flying too much to be able to continue with school

that ortho has a big business set up. dont count on that, though it is slightly possible. avg ortho would make 100-200, unless your lucky and score a big business.
