Not really waiting for my first job as I'm not qualified 'yet'

But I am a 24 year old Graphic/Web Designer & Programmer. It's my 1st job since coming out of uni and the money is ok for now.

I have no house or huge bills yet and think it'll be a great time to do my training ... But having a huge student debt over my head makes me think ... And with house prices rising would it be wiser investing into property as opposed to my pilot training?

My friends are saying stick to what I am doing senior people in my area of work earn £50/60k+ and get back to their families every night and can afford to spend their weekends flying for fun

Since coming on this forum I have been confused ad had some real eye openers, but for some reason I'd quite happily fly a plane for £15k per year
