You should finish your degree/college.

I didn't finish post secondary, wish I did...

Still, I was a bit lucky, and was hired at a big airline not many without a degree/diploma do get hired at...

While you say you don't want that now - life changes - you want more free time, more money, you have a family, you have a few buddies crash and die in the mountains, things change... take it from a guy that survived a decade of BC 703 and couldn't get out fast enough at the end...

The degree/diploma gives you more options, and is generally good for you.

The alternative is to drop out, hammer your cpl out in a hurry and be flying by spring. Then start correspondence or night school... that's what I did, but I didn't finish... Life gets busy.
