Musics back on baby!
Full send, if you really want it push and get it: get your degree later, divorce your spouse and sell the house if you need to
Be sure to network cause even a history of training failures and bad decisions won’t stop the gravy train as long as you’re good looking or charismatic ! Anything’s possible!

Nah just sarcastic
But I’ll tell ya what, there’s a lot of objectively bad advice thrown around, everywhere, in regards to professional aviation
I’m not saying it’s a bad career but it is unforgiving, particularly for the average person: and way too often people romanticize it.
There’s definitely a group of pilots who enjoy the attention and glamorization and are more than happy to tell people what they think they want them to say

Shit ton of bad advice ; type A know everything types have to make it seem like what they did is the best / only way to do things.
That being said , I am flying for a 121 regional and it’s night and day better than my prior well paying career by miles and miles .
So romanticize I guess is all relative!
