I have never understood the expensive excuse. If you have the drive and determination you will find a way. I see trailers with snow mobiles and 4 wheelers on the highway all the time. I live near the coast and see marina's full of boats of all sizes. People spend money on cars, vacations gyms and going out all the time.
We have become a nation of excuses and victims. If you look at the long time flying older people you will see they are all very different but, alike in perhaps only one way. They are compelled to fly, flying gliders is a basic a drive for us, its part of our identity and we find ways to do it over 20-30-40+ years in spite of families, careers, medical challenges and financial challenges.
There have been major psychological shifts over the last few decades that have caused people to hold back on full commitment to adventure and life style. We are becoming a nation of drones.
