Hi Anthony,
I agree with what Evo and High Wing Drifter stated before!
In my case im currently working full time so that i can afford flying at weekends ( Currently doing my PPL ) and University studies as well ( Part-time ) its not easy trying to combine this 3 things, but its not impossible and yes my plan is to go all the way until i get my ATPL, but for now and while i study, my PPL and loging hours will do just fine.
Anything just drop me a PM
Cheers
