If you're really passionate about flying I'd say go for it regardless of the pay, especially since you're only 19 years old. There's only 2 professions that I've seen that people seem to truly love their jobs, firefighters and pilots. I took flying lessons in a 152, 142, and a piper warrior...loved it even when my door flung open in midflight during my first lesson:willynilly:. I never did get my PPL but plan to continue when I have extra money. Yes, I believe for the most part pilots are underpaid but those who stick with it seem to get rewarded. Finish up your Bachelor's and try to take lessons simultaneously if that's the route you choose. To be a commercial pilot you don't need a degree but I believe the majors require it and most people you will be competing with will be college graduates. Just please don't be the aging guy like myself saying should've, would've, could'vehilarious plus your 20/20 eyesight gets worse. Also, for the most up to date news in the industry logon to the pilot forums. Good luck.

Point taken. Yeah I have some lessons lined for this summer. My eyesight is as good as anyone's right now. I had 20/10 last time I went in for a check up a few months ago so I think I could do the pilot thing.

I'm gonna keep thinkin' on it guys.
I'm torn up between this and law School right now.
