[quote=Anonymous]Son is interested in becoming a pilot rather than going to college, and points to the fact that there is going to be a severe shortage of pilots soon, with estimates of up to a shortage of 30,000 pilots by 2025 due to retirements. To tell you the truth, I really do think our son has a very good argument here for not attending college, with the caveat that he actually goes through aviation school to actually become a pilot. Pilots easily make six figures and can make upwards of a lot more if they get into things like freight shipping from my understanding. If you are a pilot, can you confirm or deny they my son's perception of the occupation shortage is correct? I really have no problem with this career choice and for him avoiding lots of student loan debt for a college degree that isn't really relevant to real world jobs. But I do worry if he's off the mark and his plans backfire.[/quote]
