With the interest rates on savings at the moment I don,t think this is a factor!

10 hours paid up front seems a managable risk......... but no more than 10 hours.

The Robin is without doubt the nicest aircraft to fly however the company has gone bust and at the moment parts are in short supply, I have no doubt that the flow of parts will start sometime but the Robin stand at the Aeroexpo in Germany last week was a joke with reprisentatves from the new company being totaly absent! So in the short term using the Robin might disrupt your flying.
