This is no laughing matter.
I'm thinking of treating myself to a fun plane as a reward for upgrade (which hasn't happened yet, so no jinxes please). I'm not brand new to aircraft ownership, but it's been about 20 years, so I anticipate the costs have, uhm, "adjusted". I'm not totally settled on what to buy, nor even what *sort* of thing to buy, but the early contenders are things like a Steen Skybolt, a Pitts S-1, that sort of thing. What would those who know estimate the ballpark costs to be, including hangar, mx, insurance, etc?
