Flying as a hobby

Hi All,

Been a long time reader of this forum,and I have always had a keen eye toward taking steps to obtain a private pilots license. I don't want to give the whole spiel about how it's always been my dream, because funnily enough it's not something I want as a career. I'm 22 years old and relatively happy with my employment, however want to add that bit of extra excitement to my life.

So my main question is; Is it too expensive of a hobby? Spending thousands upon thousands just to fly? Any information/criticisms would be helpful. I live 10 minutes drive from Moorabbin airport so getting to and from isn't an issue

Thanks!
