Wow! I'm actually amazed at the rate of people who have posted their opinion and views. Thanks everyone

The university point I made seems to be the topic of the thread.
To tell you the truth, I actually really want to go university; Newcastle to be more to the point, heard its a brillant place and I just want to go for a life and the letters at the end.

Though, I have read somewhere that University Air Squadron offers a PPL or hours towards it. So if I can pass the selection that be brillant???

After University, I was thinking to go into Management or IT Consultancy and fund my modular training at the sametime.

Is it possible to have a full time career in Consultancy or IT and train to be an airline pilot the modular way?

And what would be the time frame at 21 years, before I get my (f)ATPL and a Type Rating on say a A320?
