Go enjoy life for a bit first - see what you like to do outside of aviation and do that. If you can make a living from it even better. Fly in your spare time for a few years.

Plenty of pilots out there who haven’t got a single life/work experience outside of aviation and it’s like conversing with a couch.

If you do ever decide to make aviation your only form of employment you’ll have other skills that will be invaluable to employers.

And finally - enjoy what you’re doing at the time and don’t be in a rush to the ‘top’ - if money is all you’re after then fill your boots, but lifestyle is pretty important to me and I’ve been patient and now have the best of both worlds (natural disasters are more than a little spanner in the works but we will get through in time)

Good luck.
