I have no interest in instructing so that puts a large roadblock.
Why don't you go browse around the Regional forums and see how much those people like their jobs and how much flow they really make.
$38k is a huge deal... think long and hard about spending it. If you think about the total hours, 151 hrs, which is about $225/hr with checkrides, tests, etc... that kind of sucks. Also, ask the people if they have paid their flight instructors recently... a large school next to me hasn't paid in like two weeks, now the instructors refuse to work - it is possible the students could loose their money.
