Twisting your ear hopefully for the better but most people buy their first +/-50 hours of ME. Nobody can fly one worth a damn up to that point and insurance companies will not insure you. The good news is you can build your bought hours while learning valuable skills, using a twin to get your CFI, CFII, MEI, ATP, or flying around at night on the panel. If you do the latter make sure it is not intentionally easy flying, try for IMC, busy airspace, all kinds of approaches, ask for copilot critiques- take it all very seriously. You'll need the skills later on.
