Pilot. It is a very poor way to make money, but I love airplanes. If i didn't need the money I'd be a pilot.

Upfront costs aside, you can make a living as a pilot. There is a shortage of pilots!

Make a living != Live the life I like

For me it works out that writing software and paying to own and fly a plane leaves me with more spending money than flying for a living
