Or, on a more serious note, (from sketchy's post) no you can't just train to be a turbo-prop pilot, the license is exactly the same regardless of jet/TP, the type rating is "generally" cheaper for a TP but that's all.

And yes technically you can just flight instruct until you land a job but it isn't as simple as that, the work won't just fall in your lap.
Usually the training from 0 hrs to fATPL is a long hard road, but once you get that license it will feel as though you are back at the bottom of Everest again (unless you're quite fortunate).

I suggest you do some research, like check this post for instance.
