Chasing The Dream

Hello, 30~ year old JAR-PPL Student here, aspiring to gain employment flying piston engined aircraft anywhere, if I manage to find funds for CPL. I've noticed the BA recruitment plan, but fall short of their requirements. I'm currently working in the security sector, in a position which is best suited to elderly retired types who no longer wish to use their grey matter. I'm not sure if I've made the right choice, but I've made a gamble - the same gamble I'm starting to see throughout this forum, and reading them has caused doubt to build inside, but I don't want to let go. I've placed myself in debt in order to chase this apparently foolish dream, I'm not even sure what I'm asking for from whoever reads this, perhaps a success story. My funds will dry up after IMC/Night Ratings, that is of course if IMC still exists as it is - because I've heard from other pilots that this is being changed/consolidated into something else. Apologies if this is an atypical sob story. Your's confused, and trying my best to be optimistic; - Learning at Hurn/Bournemouth in Dorst UK.
