I couldn't do it.  No way in hell I'd pass the physical or psych tests and I have a hard time spending 8 hours in a bed.

Oh, it sounds like fun until you find out that you can't leave the bed apparatus for ANY reason.  This includes relieving yourself.  In fact, they install a catheter for "number 1", an always fun time, and provide a contraption for you to awkwardly use for "number 2".  This is while under observation from all kinds of people constantly.   Still sound like it's worth 18$k?  I'd rather spend the same amount of time out collecting cans and bottles.

Couch Potatoes need not apply... Physical and Psychological testing on par with an astronaut must be met.... I'm guessing alot of Pilots here do not meet the required specs...

You can make that easily if you want to work up in Northern Canada in Ft McMurray, any of the entry level jobs on site will pay you 6 to 8k take home if you work overtime for most of the month.  I'll take 15 to 16k without the catheter and just sitting around, thanks.
