I did the ME first then on SE addon I would somewhat agree with the above. Did my 51hr of Multi help me get my first job perhaps, but now I don't have the PIC to upgrade when it comes time for that. That being said some jobs require X number of ME hrs. So it's a tough call. The industry being the way it is I would get the Single, start instructing and get the ME later with all that extra money you won't be making.
