I find nothing wrong with loans. When it comes to flight training, its just like having a house mortgage or a leased car. If you can't afford to cover that Porsche all at once, you can find a way to go about doing that and still live your life. As long as one is not being outrageous and take a $140 K for flight training.

A degree is great for personal growth and all, but if it doesn't give you marketability, it's useless (in other words, a waste) in terms of employment.

I got a degree in accounting and did my flying on the side through the same school. Idiot.
Good for you. Looks like you will be able to eat after all. Judging by your attitude I did just ASSumed that you were a total avdork,, sorry.

With a house mortgage you get a house that you can live in. Wasting the money on flight training gets you a hole in your wallet and a bruised ego. In the end the house you can sell. You can guess what the pilot training is good for.

....And once again that's your personal view. I know people who've made incredible sums of money off aviation and others who are making it their. Now what's your point? If you actually think like that, what's the point of getting info fromthis forum?
