JAAor FAA - which is better for someone wanting to further there education
JAA PPL will cost you around £6k and the FAA PPL will cost you £4k + accomodation etc. Converting a JAA > FAA is easier than converting an FAA > JAA.
FAA IR is not as difficult as the JAA IR either. I've done the calculations of FAA PPL, IR & CPL then converting the FAA IR/CPL to a JAA IR/CPL and the saving isn't very big at all. Infact if you don't pass everything in minimum time or the AC goes tech you may spend more money
Good luck.

If you expect the FAA IR to be easy then good luck to you.

No 2 - Are you saying I'm wrong? Is the FAA IR really harder than a JAA IR?
I am only using information I have gathered from both US / UK Instructors that have taught both.
This arguments been done to death on here many times and I can't be bothered, I simply read your statement as "the FAA IR is not as difficult as the JAA IR". Was curious if you could back that up with personal experience.
I don't for one second believe that the FAA IR is harder than JAA, both are different in many ways, but no instrument rating anywhere in the world is easy.
