At my age, having a family and working a job at the same time, in a club arrangement, it took a long time. In the calendar, it took 1 year and 8 months, but you can safely substract 9 months due to a major overhaul of the (at that time one and only) training airplane.
In the logbook I had 56 hours and 40 minutes at the end of the practical skill test.
But it is a continous journey, as so many said before. Already at the end of my training period, I noticed that my CFI started to care less and less about my solo flights, I could get his endorsement easily from him for various practice flights, and when I got back, his reaction was "Was everything OK?". At first I was surprised and thought about offending him with something personally
only to realize it was part of the process of becoming a pilot
And even another 50+ hours of flying alone or with my passengers, I learn something new on every flight.
