Dreamer,
What are you flying now dreamer? Competition is tough. If you are not flying consider getting into entry level jobs that do not require a type rating. I can't speak for Euro/Asia carriers but in the US a type in a 737 gets you an interview at SWA. That's it. Most operators are going to pay you (what a concept) to get your type rating.
I have five type-ratings and I didn't pay for any. One type helped me get a job with all the experience I had in it.
Instead of trying to get a leg up "buying" your way up, get out there on the ground floor and work for it. That may sound harsh. Coming from an ex-regional recruiter in the US, I would much rather hire someone with a strong work ethic and experience in flying airplanes.
To others: Am I off base? Do most buy type ratings for Euro/Asia entry level jobs?
