Hey hey hey, it’s a whole lot safer than you’d think! Storm wise, that is. The biggest risk is other drivers bc of how much you’re on the road. But if you understand the science behind the storms and have a good team for navigation and “now casting” (forecasting the storms’ movement as it happens), then you’re golden. Barring the actions of other not-so-smart chasers who like to stop right in the middle of the road..
I was definitely blessed with the opportunity to chase as a career. My original comment was referring to people saying that he’s already a multi-millionaire, why would he stay for such a demanding job at 60 - bc the coaches are truely passionate about it. There are plenty of people who love or enjoy their job but wouldn’t want to do it forever and there’s zero problem with that. My response was simply to the people/person saying why would you put yourself through that if you’re already a multi millionaire. So my response was just saying that it’s not about the money, it’s about the passion for the career.
If I had other more important obligations outside of chasing then that would take precidence obviously. Hoping you can regain that passion once everything settles down!
