I think you will find my friend, rich or poor, that most people have made sacrifices. I too worked overseas for 5 years so I could afford pilot training............and im from a so called rich country.
Life is competitive. Nobody owes you a living. You make your own luck.
My best advice to you is get yourself down to Turkey. Lots of expansion there and they will probably favour a guy like you who would more than likely stay. You will need to make a visit and personal contacts.
Good Luck
