i have the right to work in the US, of course, i got one nationality from my mother and another from my father, in spain i'm spanish, in american soil i'm US citizen, anywhere else it depends on the passport i'm using.

I posted a long answer that wasnt published (it said something about having to wait till a moderator checked it). So i'll make long things short:

Its not that im against being instructor, but instructors here work in very bad conditions, and they dont fly that much, prolly in the states its different, i'll have to check.
What i'll do first is to get FAA ratings around Tampa Bay (i have relatives there), and then go for any job offered, no matter where.
In europe time requirements are less than in the US, something like 1000 or 1500TT with 500 ME should give me a chance to get a job here, so that's my main goal, anyway nothing is certain, i might like it there and stay for years.
I have some money to start, but im not sure about what would be the best way to invest it... buying ME time, SE time, a type rating...
Basically i'd like to go to places, do as many flight hours as possible and learn a lot, i'm not going to reject anything, of course, but i'd like to get quality time, i'd prefer to pay for a few hundred hours if that's going to give me better chances to get a decent job than to get a weekend job that its going to give me 15 SEP hours a month, i suppose you get my point. I'd love to fly a light twin all around the US... hehe, but that's prolly too good for now.
