Airbus38,
You come across as an a**hole! The guy's seeking advice and to talk down like that is unhelpful and rude.
Att82,
If it's something you like you'll go for it and make a success of it in some manner. Things may be difficult but it's like that in all sectors at the moment. The best advice you can be given is to take time to contemplate your options. At some point you will need to take a risk but isn't that what success in life is largely based? You might think of doing your PPL now, maybe even your ATPL's and hold off for an upturn or signs of one to complete your training. Be careful about going down the integrated route. Best of luck!

If you are Kuwait based probably best to look at how Kuwait airways recruits low houred pilots.... you may have an advantage if you are a Kuwaiti National.
Recruitment in the rest of the world sucks at the moment

really hard to get a job, and every year, it s harder as we are more and more to come with a CPL.
if money is important for you, don't do it.
if you don't care about the money, do it....
now they ask for CPL, IR,MCC, t/r, line training and time building.
count over 150'000 euro.
