Do What You Love and Follow Your Dreams

Posted on 5/18/2023

There’s an old adage: “Do what you love, and the money will follow.”

I often joke that, “My money must have taken the wrong exit off the Northway.”

Money is not the only factor in choosing a career.

But if aviation and aeronautics is your passion, you can combine satisfaction with good wages.

A New York Federal Reserve study recently ranked aerospace engineering the fourth most lucrative college major, five years after graduation, according to a Feb. 20 CNBC report.

Five years after graduation, the median annual salary for those who majored in aerospace science was $72,000.

Engineering, in general, is a particularly lucrative career, accounting for eight of the ten highest paying majors five years after graduation.

The Grishkot Foundation is pleased to offer the annual Walter Grishkot Memorial Scholarship for residents of Warren, Washington and Saratoga counties who study aviation, aeronautics and related fields in college.

The Grishkot Foundation also offers the Joan Grishkot Memorial Scholarship for residents of Warren, Washington and Saratoga counties who study nursing and related fields in college.
