Thanks guys. It looks like people who want to get into aviation
shouldn't go in for the money. I love flying airplanes, but I was
hoping I could make it - less financially cumbersome to do so (i.e. by
recouping some of the expenses somehow). But, it sounds like my
options for accomplishing this are limited. Well, if you guys have any
other suggestions feel free to let me know! :-)

Keep your day job, become a CFI and teach on weekends.

The CFIs at my local FBO/flight school are divided into two groups:

young guys (and the occasional gal) building time as a CFI to get a
regular flying job

older retired guys doing it to get their feet off the ground and be
payed a bit for doing it
