I am very good at money management and costs. Anyone with money can spend, there is no skill with that. Its when you don't have the money and you want to do the same thing. That is where the skill comes in. I love to have a career where i have paid travel, so free flying!
I keep my CPM very low to achieve my goals.
Perhaps AC is looking at my stats and trying and figuring out if I should be SE? If I had that non canadian Address I would be SE, but I do not have a cabin, or family member or cottage outside of Canada! I am Joe Canuck!
And there are other MMs, SEs, and SMs here who also do not rely on OPM as well. Many here seem to assume that an FF "clearly must be" flying OPM and "clearly must have" a muffintop (like my muffintop).
