A very well thought-out post and one that all novice pilots who want to rush the learning curve need to consider carefully. Thank you.

Default Nice
I already made my suggestions early in this thread...but

I sure wish i had the time to build a 10 fast as you plan.
I wish i had the 250K-400k to get the full kit in and done fast or get a bonanza
I wish i had the $ to get a hired gun to bulldoze it through fast
I wish i had the cash to go from no lic to ppl, to full ifr super fast
I wish i had the time to do all the above too.

Life sounds pretty dreamy from your spot.
Enjoy whatever path you take.

You might want to research the regulations and limitations of "writing off" expenses related to EAB aircraft. I don't know the ins and outs of business write-off's but since EAB aircraft cannot be used for commercial purposes, this plan may cause you some trouble with the FAA.

I don?t have a big ego so it?s okay.

It was just an opinion. No matter which direction the poster goes there are huge challenges.....
