Fixed wing wins , hands down

Rotary maybe ( for some people ) more glamorous. BUT downside are as follows :

1. Prohibitive cost, you may be able to afford it now, but a few years down the line , who knows ?

2. Lack of flight organisations who rent out helicopters.

3. Limited choice of types

4. No IMC flying

5. Lack of range/endurance

6. Smaller flying community to share experience with.

Oh, and remember, when you have 200hrs rotary in your log book, you could of had 500hrs F/w !!
