You seem to have a terrific job.
Owning an aircraft is not that expensive.
I have owned 3 aircraft and regard myself as a plodder.
I found it difficult to study and pass the ATPL subjects, and went down the private ownership path. I still wish I was up front of an Airliner, but such is life.
If you feel you can pass the medicals and pass the ATPL subjects without too much stress then go for it.
However aircraft ownership is very satisfying, particularly if you have something a little different.
A CPL with Instructor rating would maybe get you some weekend work to satisfy your desire to fly. Best of luck.
