Run the numbers.
Budget on $15K roughly to get comfortable up to speed flying wise.
Budget on $15 roughly for job hunting and travel
Plan on an income of $30,000 per annum in Year one with $5000 annual increases for the next 6 years, and then greater jumps I suggest but probably never above $120,000.
Irrespective of how much fun it is, the numbers have to stack up.
