Try working for 5 years and saving most of the money. You will only be 26 post that and in 5 years the industry will probably be starting to pick up from the vicious down swing it is currently experiencing.

During those 5 yrs get yourself down to your local flying club at weekends and help out etc to get your face known. You really have no rush and much as you want to be an airline pilot given the current mess the industry is in the sooner you except that it ain't gonna happen for a few years the better off you will be.

No one is recruting low houred pilots at the moment and this situation is unlikely to change for at least a couple of years.
