Hi.
I'm 33, and 230TT fATPL IRME, and ready to be hired by any airline. Waiting 1 year now, but no luck. If i were you, I would do training, but slowly. No rush. Do your school, if possible university, and in the meantime fly. Don't spend all your savings, just do little steps, with no rush. After PPL, you need a lot of time to do fATPL theory, and that doesn't cost fortune, so do it, and after that you will be ready for practise, and that you can do very quickly if you have money. There will be time, sooner or later, that pilots will be needed. Just you will have to wait for your turn. And of course you need luck as well
Fly save,
Don't give up.
I'm already praud, that I can call myself commercial pilot no matter what happens in the future
