It’s realistically that easy if you train at it and you don’t even need a degree for some companies such as southwest which will pay 200k for captains pay. You will need a lot of flight hours and need to go to a school which can be relatively expensive
Neurons you need a degree in aeronautical science with flight from a credited college with thousands of flight hours and it costs atleast a hundred grand or more.
aamir Dada a Professional pilot. Nobody’s hiring you unless you have military pilot background or went through a pilot program at a university/college. Unless you want to be a flight instructor or fly little distance crop planes your not going to be a professional pilot.. If you know other wise prove it and stop posting blank statements without facts to back it up
Actually qualifications necessary to become an airline pilot. 1: 1st class medical certificate 2: private pilot's license 3: Instrument rating 4: Commercial pilots license 5: Multi engine rating 6: 1000-1500 hours of flight time 7: Airline transport pilot certificate Currently on step 6 has taken me 4 years and cost about $100,000
Huge number of people don't make it past the physical. Found out I have perfect color vision, fantastic, but not quite good enough in just one eye. DQ'd
You no longer need a bachelors degree to be an airline pilot. You need a hell of a lot more certifications than a private pilots license in order to be an ATP.
@@AviationAngler to be an airline transport pilot, you must: Be at least 23 years of age Must hold either: A commercial pilot certificate with an instrument rating Or, meet the military experience requirements to qualify for a commercial pilot certificate, and an instrument rating, Or, a foreign airline transport pilot license with instrument privileges Medical requirements: Hold a 1st class medical certificate to act as Pilot-In-Command Hold a 2nd class medical certificate to act as Second-In-Command 1,500 hours of Total Flight Time 500 hours of Cross-Country Flight Time 250 hours as Pilot-In-Command (PIC) 100 hours of Night Flight Time 75 hours of Instrument Training 50 hours of In Class of Rating Sought Pass an ATP knowledge test Complete and pass an ATP-CTP training program
Dude, I'm a plumber and I made $600k last year. Also, I lied, just like everyone else in the comments section. I'm not a plumber; I'm unemployed and made $1.2M.
I make 120k as a police officer in Texas. The city also contributes 14% to my retirement and I contribute 7%. That’s 21% contributed to my retirement!! Which equates to more than $145k a year. Also, when I retire at 60 years old the retirement checks can NEVER stop as long as I live.
@@Mafano1990 Texas pays the most for police officers, cost-of -living adjusted, because they have many of the nations safest cities. 4 Texas cities are in the Top 10 safest cities in America. Frisco (1), Mckinney (2), McAllen (6), Plano (9). Cities like Plano, Irving, Grand Prairie, and Richardson have high base salaries and top out for officers. Of course they increase when you become a sergeant. Also, law enforcement is ALWAYS NEEDED somewhere. So even if you are pay scaled at 80K as an officer, you can work as much overtime as you'd like while on Roll Kall and easily bring in an extra 50K. It's not even a question.
@@brusk3978 no, may 2020 (middle of lockdown) average salary was $93,300. "The median annual wage for airline pilots, copilots and flight engineers is $160,970." -ATPflightschool
@@zart3374 😂😂😂 you got your statistics from a flight school… Look at the department of labor the median salary was 55k as of 2015 by 2020 it was 73k only less then 10% make over 100k less then 1% make 150k plus and the bottom 10% avg 43k…
Yes might take 10 years to get there but then they're mostly around 40 when they do and they love what they do so they can do it for another 20 years easily
Long term, Engineering is the way to go... for the first 10 years it's brutal and low paying however, the salary will dramatically increase after a decade of experience. Engineers are one of the most wealthy individuals in society at retirement due to their good paying jobs and logical thinking.
Can you explain what happens after 10 years? I’m an EE student and the only industry I’ve been in is controls (and power but I hated it). I want to know if it’s worth getting into hardware or electronics or semiconductors or something
@@RJN8580some airline companies require bachelors or prefer it so you’re chances to get hired will be alot better. Still there’s a pilot shortage going on right now because the flight training costs and most captain pilots are retiring.
I have 2 car salesmen that barely work 40 hours a week and pulled down $300k + the last 3 years and are currently around $275k right now (4th year). All they do is walk customers around, run info for 15 minutes, give customers their numbers, then hang out 5 hours a day. Make's me want to demote myself....
If you own a dealership with guys making that much then you are a millionaire, if you’re just a sales manager or something you need to talk to your bosses about commission because you should be getting commission on total sales
A millionaire is someone who has $1 million in networth. If a millionaire wants to not draw down on the principal and have the principal keep up with inflation then they can only spend $32,500 of that $1M each year. That’s below the poverty line if you are just trying to live off that $1M for the rest of your life. Most people could probably live off of $2M which would provide an annual income of $65,000 per year but you aren’t driving lambos. You start doing something like that and all your money would be gone quick and you’d be back to working a 9-5 or 7-6 like everyone else. Check out something called the Trinity study of safe withdrawal rates if you want the details.
@bruh me? No, but I do know that the eyesight part is definitely needed to fly a plane. Because if you want to be a pilot in the military you need depth perception usually military pilots and public/commercial pilots run off the same requirements, I'm not honestly sure how many requirements are similar between the two occupations. I do wear glasses and have to wear glasses due to me being near sighted and also having astigmatism.
@@alamgudiel7663 you don’t need to go to college but if you want to become one and you have the money than I would go to college because it makes your chances higher. Although yea you don’t need a degree.
PPL is one of the hardest ratings to be honest, because of all the new information that you learn from having no prior aviation background. Once you get PPL, you just gotta get instrument, commercial, and multi engine.
are you able to help me out my mom and i are struggling my dad passed away almost a year ago and we’re both working just trying to keep the house up both working 10 hours a day only to eat once a day it really sucks. Please if you can help us out
The 2nd one is wrong. You need an ATP license, 1500 flight Hrs minimum, or you can get your R-ATP depending on which route you take. With an associate degree, you can get your r-atp at 1250 and bachelor at 1000.
You don’t need a degree for the airline pilot. You need to pay for the school, be accredited and have thousands of hours flying. Most people become pilots in 2 years
Assisted living can pay well if you can handle of the stuff that comes with. I’m 19 with 9 years of experience 6 volunteer and 3 working as a employee all in the dining room and kitchen. I’m making 63K a year with a Highschool diploma as a Dining service director. Our maintenance director is 20 years old no degree at all. Used to work for his dad doing hotel and general building maintenance with 10 years of experience. He’s making 85k a year. We may have gotten lucky having a lot of prior experience for our age but we have people with less experience making good money. My lead server has 2 years of experience And is making 39K a year at 18 with just a high-school degree. Only issue with assisted living is that working with old people can be a pain. But I love my job
I volunteered mainly. I would read the trivia and books with the residents it was originally a school function we partnered with the home as a way for extra credit and to show support. By 16 I was working there
Need way more than that for airline pilot. Definitely do not need the degree Need private, ifr, commercial, twin, CFI, CFII, ATP and 1500 hours. There’s a reason why they get paid a lot. It costs between 80-150k just to get the licenses. You still need that 1500 hours to get the ATP.
This is why you shouldn’t believe everything on the internet. Becoming an airline pilot takes years of training and 1500 hours of experience before you can MAAAAYBBEE make $60k/yr. Oh…and about $100,000 for all your licenses.
Depending on what speciality, and what type of law you practice, also takes a lot longer. My wife is in her plastic surgery residency (Her second residency) still only making 65k a year, and already did 4 year undergrad, 4 year medical school, 5 year general surgery residency, now a 3 plastics residency, and then a 1 year fellowship.
@@runningdebate2670 damn, but usually u don't have to go through 2 residencies do you? Because normal residency us 3 years and neurosurgery is like 5 years but with a fellowship which is 1 to 3 years. But you shouldn't count a residents salary. Plus nowadays you can do a 6 year direct entry program and skip undergrad
@@ZainAhmed-ns2di Normal residency for what? If you do only a plastic surgery residency it's 6-7 years then you can do unlimited fellowships. Or you can do what my wife did and do a 5 year general surgery into a 3 year plastics. Usually the 7 year plastic residency includes a year of research.
@@runningdebate2670 I meant residency for a family doc. Usually though they require 3 years of general surgery residency and then 3 years of plastic surgery residency. You can also sometimes do 2 and 3. No fellowship required. That's for Canada at least
@@ZainAhmed-ns2di Yeah if you're just doing a non specialist residency they're usually short and don't need to do a fellowship but you're making half of what some other MDs make.
Becoming a pilot isn’t too hard compared to some of these other jobs. For most pilots you don’t even need a bachelors degree but you will need a pilot’s license. Some of these companies will let you fly without a bachelors such as Alaska airlines south west airlines etc which you can easily make a 6 digital salary. But in order to make high pay at any company you must have a large amount of flight experience and work your way to the top.
Okay. It takes much more than a pilot license and most of the major airlines require a BS degree or military flying experience. If you go full civilian like I did you have to have a minimum of hours before insurance companies will allow airlines to hire you. I had my private, instrument, multi engine and my ATP plus I had 6,200 hours as PUC (pilot in command) that’s about six years of multi engine flying. You are t allowed to fly over 1,000 hours a year. And yes - regional airlines may fly you that much. That’s a lot since your hours are only counted during actual flying. Time on the ground doesn’t count towards your hours. In an eight hour day you can theoretically only get credited with two hours of flying. It’s a lie and total BS that you just need a private pilot license.
@@crabbiboi5528 well they’re correct…once they become a captain and live in a country like the US. I just started with an airline (FO B738/MAX) and still have below 500h flight hours (you typically get a raise at 500h and 1500 and then once you do the command upgrade). €2500,- is a realistic monthly for now. Granted, it is lower due the salary cuts due to COVID, but still… the figures mentioned in this video are a wee bit optimistic. If you have any other questions, AMA.
@@crabbiboi5528 They can talk up money all they want. The industry is cyclical, and always has been. Biggest boom is now slowing. There will be furloughs and pay cuts, guaranteed. Your guys at work will be looking for a job driving a truck before they make $200K.
@@ajgraham7085 Where are you getting they are unpaid for 5 years? Once they become an intern they begin earning a paycheck. They are unpaid just like every college student until they start intern/fellowship.
having a job as an airline pilot dose pay well BUT the days and hours STINK . it will cost you a lot of cash to take all the needed classes on your own so its best to join the military in hopes they will school you
Do what make you happy. I made 120k as a car salesman not a lot but average wirh no experience i hate it. Im making half of that doing something i like. Surprisely i am happier
@@hashh2019 selling phones lol . Low key i miss the car business just was more manhood environment. You could fight with other salesman and next day we be like nothing happen.
I'll counter the US Military between the Air Force Marine Corps and navy are having a pilot shortage because compared to their civilian counterparts they are making pennies. The reason why right now a lot of Pilots are leaving even on the civilian side is the Airlines especially passenger ones took a huge hit during the pandemic laid off a bunch of people and now the Pilots that are remaining are getting over worked.
Takes thousands of hours to become a pilot if you’re lucky and you start when you’re young you could get hired by the time you’re 28 or 29 you will have to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars out of your pocket
Bro I want to become a pilot in the Marine Corp but to that I have to get my bachelors degree and my pilots license. I think I know what industry I’ll go into after that 😁
Why not just become an airline pilot? Sure, you’ll have to finance it on your own, but you’ll make a lot more money, not have to spend many years getting a degree first, and you’ll build seniority faster at an airline.
All your numbers are way off It's weird you have no background or education at all but you say you've done all these things through our research we found out that you've only done about 10% of what you say all your numbers are way off though You can work at Costco on the front lines or even Amazon and make the same amount of money that an airline pilot makes
All you need is a pilots license to make $189K per year? Um, no. It requires a pilots license, an instrument rating, a multiengine rating, a commercial license, an ATP license, 1,500 flight hours minimum, hiring interviews, a type rating, 2 to 4 years in the right seat as a first officer with no seniority flying the worst routes while living in a crash pad making maybe $40K, check rides every 6 months, Class I flight physicals every six months, then maybe a shot at a left seat, then several more years working up seniority until you're in the top pay scale.
Many things wrong about number 2. First off, you need more than a private's license. You need an IFR, Commercial, and type rating PLUS thousands of hours. Furthermore, the salary can get up to 700k as a senior captain.
You don't need a bachelor degree to be a pilot, just a license, flight time and willing to work basically for free with horrible hours for a very long time for the chance of making big money. Or, you just apply to Emirates and they will train and pay you from day 1, if accepted.
Not true at all. You need more then just a private pilots liscence before you can become an airline pilot. You need a PPl, Instrument rating, CPL, and ATP liscences to name a few. Source: Captain for a major US airline on the boeing 777. I make around 310,000 a year, but it took me years to get to that pay level.
he forgot to say how much money you have to pay and how much time you have to work for free training to be a pilot. want to pay to work for free go be a pilot
So Solar in its peak in certain state had reps doing 100k a month and Medical Equipment sales is kinda known in the sales world to be the peak. 300-500k is normal and of course top most is being a Bussiness Broker or a Real Estate/Investor or even Agent but at the highest levels. I think Bussiness Brokerage is less saturated then Real Estate. Ive worked both sidss but when my mentor brokered a deal in Africa for 50 hospitals and Apartment complexes that was worth about a billion dollars and made 1% of that deal I knew exactly what I wanted to do xD
