If that's your dream, Francie, then follow it. I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth either but none the less that didn't stop me putting myself through university and pilot training college.
At the moment, I've a reasonably good job in aviation, but no pilot job as yet after a year of getting my licence. Still you have to persevere. Achievement is one percent inspiration and ninety nine percent determination.
If this is what you want, go get it.
Good luck, Cessnagirl
