Or perhaps you could find a job in aerial work or instruction.
I know you won't earn the same amount of money, but I don't understand why so many people that discovers that being a pilot is their ultimate goal won't even think about this.
I'm studying for my ATPLs and yes, I would love to be a 777 captain some day. But I would be very happy flying a Pilatus Porter, a 310 or an Arrow for the rest of my life.
