Their low estimate is that a commercial instrument licence will cost 55K. 70K plus of you add a CFI-I. Then add the cost of college on top of that. Tuition, housing and books are averaged to be around 25K per year.

I say save the money and join the military. You will thank yourself in the long run.

Unless you do ROTC, you have to pay for the college yourself anyways.
