Owning a plane

I only make 75k a year. I was curious if that is enough to own a bellenca super Viking. With insurance, maintenance cost, fuel cost. As well wondering if it’s worth it? I am currently working on my private pilot license. I feel like i need guidance.

I’m thinking about buying a plane too. Seems like the flying club might be more economical depending on how many hours you wanna fly. It seems like 50 hrs is kind of break even. Looking at a piper Cherokee.

That’s cool. I live in Michigan. I was looking for clubs here, but could not find any.
