Re: paying for flying training
well i worked on the mines, bought a small business, then started flight training.....parents are poor so no help from them, in contrast i bought first house at 19, invested the 50K i saved by that stage into a franchise and then used cashflow for flight training.
If i was 16 with bright starry eyes and my parents offered to pay, lke most kids i would have accepted straight away, and i stand by that, but without that option i had to work out a plan and stick to it which i have. Only thing i didnt prepare for is the backstabbing, cut throat hidden agenda biggots that seem to dominate the business world. But i stood my ground lived by my own morality and feel good about the way i have treated people and have a good reputation from it.
