Those who work in the skydiving industry tend to do it for the love of the sport and it being what they want to do instead of making even a decent income by social standards.

$250,000, cash and checks.

How much did you make at your job last year?

Sparky

My idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals

I think i made, $2 dollars, about 5 sausages at a work BBQ, a spars sock, a few nights on the couch accommodation, about 200 beers, a couple of free slots, and internet access. That is what i made, what i spent was
around $15,000 NZD on gear, jumps, petrol, beer, and other things.


If you want to get into the sport to make money, do something else.
If you want to be rich, do something else.
Skydiving is like acting, there are many actors in the world and only a small percentage of them make it in to a well paid position.

Sure there anre many jumpers who make a good living but you dont get into skydiving to be rich.
Ifm you get into skydiving, you will find that your life revolves around jumping. If you are good enough to make money, be prepared to give it straight back to your DZ (employer) for jumps that you will be doing and to the dealers for the gear you will be buying.

Sure there are many skydivers that make a good living, but there are many more that are broke after each weekend.

To quote Bill Booth, "The way to make a small fortune in skydiving is to start with a large one".
