For the same total expense, I could have attended University of Kentucky, done all my flight training through CFI-AIM @ LEX, bought 200hr of multi time and a CE500 type rating, gotten a new car and still been a few grand less total cost.
Despite that, I have no regrets whatsoever for the choice I made.
That's actually not that bad. It is a large investment no matter where you go, so you might as well enjoy the heck out of it. Really just depends how much you are willing (and able) to invest.
