Helofan - you lucky bastard.....no mystery why you're doing this.
Sibuk - don't listen to the guys who say if you're worried about retirement funds you're just not passionate enough. Nobody here is likely to recommend fixed wing (wonder why?) but really, it's not that easy on that side either. Just go for what you like best and any problems are best solved as they arise. As you say, you've got a degree to fall back on, you can change your mind at any time and fly in your spare time instead. You really have nothing to lose except a of money....and anyway, once you start thinking about it it's actually too late - you've got it you just don't know it yet........welcome to the club........

I agree it's not a lot of money if you have to pay back mega loans but the point I was failing to make is that you can get paid to do something you love or pay to do it. The gross may not be huge but the net, the difference between paying and getting paid is enormous.
Oh, and "follow your heart" is cracking advice for life in general. Easy for me to say of course, I'm living the dream.
SIBUK, GO FOR IT!
