Airplanes are (usually) more expensive than other toys


Considering that even a modest plane costs as much as a house, I can
barely imagine the world of people whose toys cost more than their
planes.

I have a feeling that the first plane I own will be one I build
myself.


If your point of comparison is to a new production aircraft, my house
was much cheaper. On the other hand, building a plane yourself will
probably be cheaper than a new production aircraft, don't look for it
to be some super bargain. You can easily run into the six figures
with your own homebuilt.
