Maybe stop encouraging people to soak up over 100k in debts for a job that's not 100% guaranteed. That's bad advice. Not shopping around for good rates for training in a competitive market is also bad advice.

No one is going to walk up and hand you a 300k job with an easy path to get there. Anyone who's selling this is either trying to sell you something or has drunk the Kool-Aid themselves.
I think you missed my point and maybe I missed yours.
Mine was a reply to your comment about being “whorish”.

I think there’s $30-$35k in CFI wages rolled into the $120k training fees.
You call that “whorish”
After which I stated that in 121-world you end up paying for your training also.

Now the JB path is ‘garanteed’ which means it can still get cancelled at any time.
It may not be the best option right now but you’re two years away from finishing and things can look mighty different in two years.
