1) A steady job with decent pay and a regular schedule flying single engine piston with opportunities on days off to build ME turbine time, do contract jobs, but also miss turbine contract gigs to fly the steady gig. Build time fast and have more opportunities for contract gigs in 9 months.
2) Irregular contract flying multi engine turbine making 2.5x more than job 1 the days you do fly, but no guarantees. Not all time is loggable but possibly much more money.
3) Steady regular gig making the same as job 1 but all turbine and soon jet, no opportunity for contract gigs. Set schedule and less freedom than contract flying would be, but more secure.
I know this is a complicated hypothetical, just interested in some different opinions.
