Degree first then flight school in the states...Work when in school and especially the summers - put the money away so you can make a bigger downpayment on your loan.
Depending on what you make while in school I would look into putting money into a index fund. I recommend the Vanguard S&P 500.

You read my mind Lafrequentflyer, your head is definetly on straight. I've actually been watching the market for last bit and the options. Mutual funds seems respectably good. The security is good. Stock market itself at this moment is too shaky.. Ahh bear market!!!

It will eventually go up though. I had the best idea ever and I created an account with Yahoo!Finance and created a portfolio so I can study it. (For those who are businesslike and have enough brains and time to study these things... its the right move to being succesful). I've been watching the aviation markets since around 16. NOT GOOD!! Damn it's bad!!!!! It's almost like your buying the lottery from one company in the world, and your chances of winning is one out of the number of persons in the world!! Outrageous... Out of all, the only airline that seemed as if it had a steady future/income is southwest. Boeing is not even steady anymore... Airbus is doing huge business
Well, I'm looking into some school broshures right now. Looking for undergrad degrees in Canada. Hopefully this path works out... I just hate the fact of spending another time away from flying

IT MAKES ME TWITCH. My every outdoor movement is fixed to the sky!
