i really hadn't even begun to consider the 80 grand loan that i'm having to scrape together to fund my flying training! i hadn't thought that i'm going to be paying it back for over 5 years assuming i get a job, and i certainly hadn't considered, like pretty much every other student that undertakes this major financial commitment, the very very severe effects of not finding employment within, say, six months such as having to declare bankruptcy and all of the future restrictions that that would place upon me in terms of buying property and securing all other finances
Why do it then? There are other ways of getting there without such a massive debt burden. Will not be as quick though, so probably does not appeal to the 'now generation'.

By the way, it will have to be a very good job to pay off 80k+interest in 5 years!

especially as i work in the finance industry
I'm confused - you were a 'pupil' yesterday!!
