What is your plan B?

Simulator instructor is probably the easiest one to transition to after losing a medical. Make sure you get into the training department at your current airline when you can and get that experience so you will be competitive for sim jobs.

Next up is IOSA Auditor, but again that takes some relevant experience as an auditor or instructor.

Neck tattoo and Isle of Man TT competitor. There is no Plan C.

There was a book a while back about an ad exec from KC who sold everything he had, moved to the Isle, bought a clapped out CBR and eventually raced it. I've been meaning to read it....Cycle World published a couple of excerpts from it and it sounded fascinating.
 
Life, like any organic process, is an uncertain affair. You can guide it, but you can't control it. You might lose your medical because you've had a stroke and are half paralyzed, and your plan B of being a professional basketball player is right out the window.

When you invest, if you invest, do you invest in two stocks—most of your money in the one you think will do well, and a little bit on the side into a different stock in a different industry?

I mean, maybe you do—who am I to judge?

Invest in yourself. Engage in ambitious polymathy; acquire knowledge and new skills and never stop pursuing interests. You never know what tomorrow will bring.

Let me simplify that:
A plan is a tactical endeavor. Having a backup plan, by itself, is almost worthless. "No plan of battle survives its first contact with the enemy."
Contingency planning is a strategic endeavor. Not one simple road that leads to victory and another that protects from retreat, but a structure of support and tendrils of growth, like roots and branches.

I'll go back to being an A&P. I get emails and phone calls several times a month from recruiters off of a resume I submitted online over 10 years ago after I lost my job at United.
 
Reclass: Electronic Warfare...

Or take my TS and go become a flight operations manager for a contract ISR company.

Always had a plan that if I had to, I would use my bachelor's degree since that was its whole purpose. But after four years of that, I realized I didn't actually have much interest in that field as maybe I thought I did. Don't know if I could see myself doing it as a career.

I would probably fall back on my EMT/Paramedic certs and maybe pursue nursing. Medicine has always been my second passion.

Though, I always thought about being a yachtie.....
 
Start up, cash in, sell out, bro down.
