Quite a controversional issue obviously.
The thing is, in the end.........at THAT ONE interview.
No one gives a darn if you did your training in suit and tie at the fancy outfit next door or in a 3-plane family ran flightschool in dirty jeans and sweaters.
If you're competent and intelligent enough you get that job. If you're a jerk on a high horse, you won't.
You can certainly buy a whole lot of things with the right amount of money, but personality isn't among them.
