Old and Cash-strapped Wannabee

Should I really consider paid FI?
Currently age 57 yrs, PPL 100hrs P1, 100hrs P2, IMC (lapsed)
Demonstrable training experience in IT sales and services
10 years coaching experience with young and old in Modern Pentathlon air pistol (national champions to my credit)
Possible employer (they don't know about this) 15 minutes drive away.
Potential route
Gliding - bronze - silver
Unpaid tug pilot to build hours
Take CPL exams, FI course
Unpaid FI, build hours and experience
Take CPL course
Get paid
Expected time to completion, 5 years.
Is it viable? What snags?
Advice please.
Yours
