Or a Cessna.
Years ago, I worked as a project manager for a big general contractor out of California. The owner, quite a wealthy man, had been married (and divorced) three times and owned every kind of Big Boy Toy you can imagine at some point during in his life. He flew down to Texas to visit one of our job sites, and while we were eating lunch it came up that I was taking flight lessons. He looked across the table and told me this: "Jeff, take a piece of advice from an old man. Always remember the Rule of the Three 'F's." I picked up my queue and asked what that might be. His reply was, "If it Flies, Floats, or F*cks, RENT IT!" (Pardone le French, please)
I have a lovely and loving wife. But I took his advice on the other two, and I haven't regretted it.
