You seem to think that they would have wanted it if they were willing to pay an extra 5 grand. What if instead of it being an extra 5 grand, the owner wanted it to be an extra 10 grand?

Hi CFI here. He definitely has a point the cost for getting just a private license alone is around 9,000 to 10,000 dollars. To enter the airlines you’re looking at at least another six figures. The training is relatively short compared to other careers but it takes time to get into the higher pay. Seniority is everything in aviation so you must stick with it to build that seniority and better routing, scheduling. That being said Rick definitely should’ve bought this for 145!
