Yeah but then all you'd have would be a condo in FL... it'd smell musty, cost a fortune to insure for hurricane damage, cost $$$ in property tax, and may not even go up in value...
Instead you got a very good looking airplane and are working to expand your skills and learn to fly... You win. Period ;-)
(also semi-jealous, in that I wanna do it, could do it, but I can't find the time right now to do it assiduously and like you I don't wanna be a "once a month pilot" that ends up being a statistic - it's even worse, a friend of mine whose dream is to buy a DC3 keeps pushing me so I can be his copilot ;-)
