I would suggest you find aq good used cessna 172=2C buy it and find an instructor to teach you in your airplane=2C then fly it a lot as soon as you solo and get your PPL. You wi ll save a lot of money in the long run. Airplane prices are favorable at th e time and in a few years when/if the economy recovers=2C airplanes have al ways appreciated in value and you should be able to sell a good used 172 ju st about any time you need to. If you are a big city dweller it will be mo re expensive to keep and maintain any airplane.(hangars/maintnance etc) but if you are near a small town airport=2C things will be much easier and che aper to pursue your aviation career goals. I know of several airline pilots who didn't start their career until their mid 40's. This will cost you a b ig seniority advantage with larger airlines but there are other rewarding f lying careers. Do it for the love of flying and you can't loose. Do it fo r money only and you may loose.
