Living on a CFI\'s salary
While a lot of people who contemplate making the transition from a well paying job to CFI'ing full time to get on the road to the airlines realise that there will be a lot of sacrifices to be made, at least on an intellectual level.
I was wondering if anyone who is now living the life of a fulltime CFI could comment on how they had to adapt the way they live to just be able to survive? What tips do you have for living on the tight pay you'll be getting for perhaps something like 2 years (maybe more)?
I have often wondered if I'd be able to make the change, and while I do realise there will be one I admit that I probably don't fully understand what it would be like, which is important if I (or anyone else) is seriously considering doing this.
