Pilot Salary

I understand there is much more to life than pay, but unfurtunately pay is a very important consideration. I have a PPL but I would like to ignore that for now - I have also posted on here several times before but cant remember the username or password - so I have a new account. The question;

How much can a pilot expect to earn in 20 years if you started training for a PPL today.

So, first 18 months = training ... cost? (approx £70,000 is this still about right?)
And then presume you are lucky and land a job immediatly with say Easyjet.

Over the next 20 years how would you expect your salary to increase - I dont even know the starting salary anymore.

I understand there are many factors to take into consideration but I am just trying to figure out some 'realistic' numbers. All help is appreciated.
