Man this thread got pretty nasty in places

I am a 'wannabe' with only 14 hours under my belt with the ATC (Chipmunk/Bulldog/Gliders). I then did my 3 A'levels to get me into uni and studied Multimedia Tech & IT studies.

Had my job as a web designer (including; hardware & software advisor / PC Maintenance and any other odd jobs) for over 3 months and looked into doing the PPL last month but with the outcome being a £45/£50k bill for training I am not decided what would be the best way to spend my money.

Property is still on the rise but I have a girlfriend that would struggle to pay the installmets, I doubt I'd have the free funds to pay for my PPL after I get the house. I have just purchased another GSXR for half of it's value so I have the potential of making an easy £2k. should I keep buying and selling cars (I seem to have the nack of making £1k+ off every vehicle I have owned).

But £50k is a lot of cars . I guess I am just unlucky for not being born into a rich family. I paid for Uni fees and other costs and still have a £14k debt around my neck and a 2.2 degree

So I am 24 year old wannabe
