AG, you can look forward to spending a lot of time flying for minimum wage while spending buckets of cash on further training. Don't expect anything resembling a living wage until you get your instructor rating, even then you'd probably have to work outside the city in order to afford a place to live. More power to you if you can do it, but bear in mind that you'll be well into your late 30s before making any real money. Don't mean to sound discouraging, but at your age maybe a PPL and a retirement plan that includes part-time instructing might be a better way to go.
BTW which school are you looking at? I'm a regular renter at Island Air, know most of the instructors well.
