Sierra...
if you can pass a first class medical there is no reason why you should not be one of the few who make a career in flying.
Just hang in there, eventually there will be a "lucky" break. Remember "Luck is when Opportunity meets Preparation".
On the other hand you might spend all your money to gain a licence which will not provide with any income but just fuel your desire. In other word, you will gamble a lot of money to fullfill your selfish dream, so good luck to you...
