I went from 0-hero(CSEL) in 1 year of training at a part 61. Have spent roughly $30k. Have split most of my time with a time builder. 0 sim time
It is easy to get financed for a 141 school, but is alot more expensive and training is more of paying for a steak dinner and getting fast food.
Should consider getting a personal loan of half of the cost, and rest paying cash, and going to a part 61.
