Avoid debt if at all possible. But have a financial plan that drives how long you need to stray in the middle east...that way you have a goal and light at the end of the tunnel.

Also I would explore other options for flight training, it seems that 90K might be a little high unless you're getting a degree or a lot of ME time (but you don't even need much ME time for regionals today anyhow).

Also...do you have a 4-year degree? You'll need one for the airlines.
