Get a place to live, and find some kind of simple job. You apparently won't
need the money, but you will need something to keep you occupied in your
non-flying time. You shouldn't fly all the time - you need breaks to allow
the knowledge to settle in. Fly about 3 times a week, and hang around the
field some of the other time, but not all the time. You'll learn a lot
there, too.

Evidently he brings his own job with him. It would be a great system.
I have twice taken a week of intensive training, two lessons a day,
and it was really punishing for me (I started flying at 68). I think
three 90-minute lessons a week would be ideal.

As for hanging about the airport, that suggests choosing a small one.
