If you're after networking opportunities, you'd do better spending the 5K on a check-out and a few hours rental out of MKT. That would at least demonstrate that you're keen enough and capable enough to fly the aircraft without getting lost and/or running into a tropical storm and at worst get you a bit more time in the aircraft of your choice...
Of course, 5K worth of beers in the right hands might do the same.
