Learn to fly and buy and airplane. They aren't as expensive as you might think, and it makes a huge difference.

Lol
Except those parking fees 🥶
Ha, not that expensive... That is relative.
My dad almost bought a cessna in the 70s becuase he thought he could make it work, and loved to fly more than anything. That is until he got real and calculated the hanger, maintenance and other fees. Planes are not for plebs unfortunately.
Owning a plane is not inexpensive. But it's also not prohibitive -- depending on your situation of course.
You can pick up a good used plane for less than you'd pay for a new car. Hangaring can be a challenge; but there are lots of ways to share hangars and share ownership for that matter.
Maintenance can get pretty expensive if you don't budget for it and squirrel the money away on a regular basis. Generally speaking you should budget for ~$100/hour, and ~100 hours per year. Ten grand is a lot; but it's squarely in the middle class budget range for someone who is motivated.
