You have got to be kidding me! Since you mentioned that you are still on college, I will remind myself that you just don't know better....

Look, I was there and I still remember what college was like. My advice to you is to pursue a career as a pilot if you truly love to fly. If you seek vast fortune, prestige, notoriety, to be well heeled and traveled and have lunch in NY and dinner in ROME, then look elsewhere.

Especially in the begining this will be one the hardest undertakings anyone will ever take in a career, yet be one of the most rewarding experiences in the world.....if your heart is in the right place to begin with.

Best of luck with your endeavors....
