For sure, I won't forget to brag about it haha

It was just recreation for me. I had just finished law school. You have to keep us updated.

Sorry that you ran out of money! Were you only looking into it recreationally or did you have a career in mind?

I joined a flight club for a while while I was still studying and that's how I got my first taste of actually being in the air as a glider pilot and not just dreaming about it. I immediately knew 

Afaik, I didn't have to pay for anything—not even for fuel because I was learning to fly in a glider plane first—; just had to help out with stuff on the ground. However, the amount of time I would spend on the ground vs in the air because there were so many others also learning how to fly convinced me that it wasn't worth it though. I'd rather pay money to be done faster. I already didn't have much time next to my studies. These others were also very young (still in school) compared to me so I kind of felt out of place, too.
