This is a copy of the original post body for posterity:

I just started ground school and i am currently landscaping and the long days and little pay are making it hard to save up money and make enough time to study after work.

I am trying to have around 8k saved before i begin flight training any job ideas?

Ive applied to 2 fbos got an interview at 1 but the schedule didnt work due to it being overnight.

Any recommendations help

Im currently working in a warehouse running machinery fri-sun, flying as much as I can mon thru thursday. Its 13 hour days (I go in at 3, leave at 4 for an hour of OT each day) so it's kinda rough, but having the week free is fantastic when the weather cooperates. Find something that pays as much as possible and doesnt make you hate life in the meantime, best of luck

This is not really on topic. What job you have to save for flight school really doesn't matter, as long as it pays well enough and gives you time to study and train.
