My plan right now is to get back into my previous career and start making money again. My primary concern is being able to pay my monthly loan payments and I'd like to pay more each month to keep the loan down. On top of that, I have my college loan I have to pay, and then the cell phone, car, etc. So at the end of the day, I'll have very little money as I do want to put money toward my retirement since I haven't contributed in 2 years.

I am going to start reading on the whole CFI thing on my spare time, but it will have to be an absolutely cost free effort. At some point later in life, when I have disposable income, which, who knows when that will be, I will hook up with my CFI here in NY and go for it. It's a long road. But that is my plan. As for going into the regionals, I'm chalking it up as a failure. Maybe when these VLJ air taxis start getting popular I may have a shot at them. But that's all forward looking.
