All I can say is there's many people here scrabbling around for a few grand to get 25 hours worth of flying in towards their dream job.
If its your true dream and you have that sort of financial security, I know what I would be doing in your shoe's.
Maybe go for an aptitude test at one of the bigger FTO's to get them to assess your academic/aptitude potential? Your english or maths might be better or worse than you think - so go and check.
