Everybody wonders the same thing I'm sure at some point in the struggle to get a license and get a start.
I spent 3 years working 2 & 3 jobs at a time to fund a commercial license. It took about a year of travelling the country and knocking on doors to get a break.
For me every day it was worth it. I don't feel like I've worked a day since I started in this industry. Would I do the same again ?? Most definately. I would just start earlier !!
