That thankfully isn’t true anymore. Pilots are now very highly compensated from the jump.

I think there’s some willing suspension of disbelief that is required as an element of any question like this. You have infinite money and everyone takes it as face value.
Again, nothing a call or showing up in person can’t fix. It’s just risk mitigation.
Most are much higher than that I think and are probably closer to per day. And that’s what you can self-service online. A call to a bank or showing up in person solves it.
Doesn’t even need to be the same bank. Most banks process wire transfers up to 3PM for same day deposit in the target account.
But either way, the bank debits it from you same day.
You sell 50% of the stuff you bought to pay it. Or maybe more because the prices probably crashed. But you have a lot of time to do that, actually - you have at least a quarter to pay estimated taxes, plus it’s just fines and/or interest to kick the can even further.
It’s not that big a deal.
Found the person who doesn’t own a Tesla.
My Tesla did monumentally stupid things on the regular on autopilot. Like phantom braking. It would slam on the brakes while doing 65 on the highway because of shadows. You’d be flying over my hood in your bike.
Glad you’re a trauma expert!
I think they’re now broadly free on all but the most restrictive plans- but when iMessage came to be they weren’t - and most phones wouldn’t split 160 characters into multiple messages. You were literally limited by that.
They used to charge extra if you were roaming too. I think T-Mobile was the first to stop and everyone followed.
This is so comically wrong I don’t know where to start. SMS was fucked from the get go, especially in the US where it was common to charge by the message for SMS. Seriously. It was $0.25 to send and $0.10 to receive them on a lot of people’s plans.
The wireless carriers fucked SMS, and will absolutely fuck up RCS - along with all the various providers out there. It’s a dogshit standard that isn’t broadly interoperable still.
iMessage was a breath of fresh air for people who did use SMS.
And don’t call me Shirley.
Surely they adjusted for that.
The max bracket starts at $693k for married couples filing jointly. The vast majority of couples making $1M-10M are not running that that income through an LLC and shuffling into trusts and businesses. That definitely happens - not with ordinary income, which is what those tax brackets are for. It predominantly happens with people putting assets in trusts (i.e. stock). There are ways to play games with ordinary income, but it’s much, much harder.
I did not say they should get paid 100s of times more. In fact I said the opposite.
But it’s not a leap to imagine someone who manages people has an outsized impact (on average) on the performance of the business relative to the people they manage. They set direction and goals - and while it isn’t more important than the individuals doing the work to achieve the goals, on average it has a larger impact.
Cushy office job or not, managing people is a shit ton of work, work you don’t have as an IC. It’s work that is often done after you do your day job. There are shitty managers just like there are shitty ICs, but if you’re talking in generalities, the percentages are probably similar.
They are probably still a little low - but there’s a giant gap between $400k and $200M.
If you believe that a lot more lower level people should make $150-200k, their manager should probably make more, and their manager should probably make more, and their manager should probably make more, and the CEO should probably make more and all the sudden there isn’t a wide enough gap to pay those people more. Would you want to manage a bunch of people for $5k/yr more?
Money that isn’t paid to employees is paid to shareholders or squandered on stupid stuff.
Their CEOs should make more, and their regular employees should make more.
Not all zionists are religious, like at all.
They had the 100k warranty long before the theta engine debacle.
Their expected reliability is lower.
I mean, this is kinda the free market at work? Nvidia built and dominated a market, and AMD and Intel are pouring billions in to give people an alternative which will drive prices down?
Not anymore for most pilots. Pay has skyrocketed.
