I agree. Get any job. look around for inexpensive ways to fly and stay in school. If you borrow money now you will never be able to afford the low income starter job that is necessary to gain experiance.
The best advice is to be ready when the opertunity presents itself. Start studying. Learning is best accomplished outside the aircraft and book learning is inexpensive.
From an engineer with 30 years airline experiance because I was at the right place at the right time with the right friends. A big Thank You all who helped along the way. Hanging out at the local airport also helps.
