need some helpful advice

[flyallday]

Hi, I need some advice.

If you were in my shoes would you would you start flight training and college with at most a 35k loan. Or would you work till the end of the year and only be taking out a 10k loan?

How hard is it to be paying off close to 300 a month in loans with a CFI salary and 1st 2nd year F/O pay?

Any advice will be welcomed

I'd work to the end of the year.

Debt sucks. Starting a career with a huge debt load sucks even worse.

I would say avoid debt unless you absolutely have to take it on. Think of how you'll pay that debt off when you're making $12K as a CFI or $16K as a regional first officer.
