Just like you said, you won't know for sure until you try for yourself. The worse that can happen is you realize that the lifestyle is not for you and then decide to revert back to your original career plans. It's not that terrible and you will at least have learned something valuable along the way. Financial loss? Sure, but that's not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things.

And yeah, I'm also financing flight training through my job... I hear you, it takes time and dedication. I've been saving a bunch for the last couple of years and I'm about done now. Keep it up, you're almost there.
Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. Best of luck to you!
