FI on a PPL realistic?

Hi all

First of all a very merry christmas to you all. I am on here for some advice please. My dream was always to attain a CPL with an IR and see where it got me. However, as im sure many of you can relate to, spending that kind of money to achieve a dream is one hell of a gamble, especially at my age which is 40. A gamble i can ill afford to take. If i was a younger single man then i would have no hesitation. However, I love flying and want to get an FI endorsement (This was always the plan). My question(s) is basically is being a part time FI on a PPL a realistic ambition, employment wise (not necessarily as a main income) and would i have to complete all the 14 ATPL exams again as mine have expired. I have looked in the CAP but cant find anything specific to an FI course with a PPL. Thanks for taking the time out to read this.
