Even beyond the 500 hours things don't look that pink! Believe me!
I'd recommend to either be lucky and find something that gets you airborne (no money comes with that) or find some other job and build up your time over time. Don't drop money to reach the minimums of some operators, 90% of the time that will not pay off.
Not with thousands of high time people coming down desperate for jobs.
