Maybe you should be giving us the advice. If at the age of 16 you can earn enough to pay for a CPL and fund yourself through a degree you certainly don't need our help. But if you think jobs for graduates are scarce have a second look at aviation. I'd suggest that there are several thousand disillusioned people with nice shiny (and many well tarnished) but as yet unused CPLs. I'm also sure I'm correct in suggesting that there will be hundreds of un-employed type rated pilots. Really, do something else before looking at flying. I'm 100% in agreement with John Smith above.
