You don't sound harsh at all, it's good advice and I absolutely need to.

Get the degree. If you were a part 121 DE, or in management I'd say you *may* have a shot without it. While I think a fractional gig is valuable, and your experience would be valued, the field is just too competitive right now.
Good luck, there is plenty of opportunity ahead.

Check airman credentials will greatly increase your competitiveness, with or without the degree. Get in school for sure, but while you're doing that a check pilot position will definitely increase your chances of landing an interview while working on the degree.

Yup. I want to say 20% with Verizon but it's been a while since I've looked. I think AT&T might have been better

AT&T is a 24% discount off the monthly line fee. Not a discount off the total amount.
