Only do it if it really is your dream.
There were guys in my flight school that were 35-39.
Friend of mine has a friend that quit his job that paid him 160K a year and is 42 to start training.
Was it foolish? Probably.
But he really wanted to TRY and fulfill what he's dreamt of, and I don't think that's stupid
The job status for newbies is extremely tough.
You need a lot of luck, and / or connection.
It takes patience, and unless you really want to become a Pilot, don't bother with it.
Good Luck whatever you decide.
