Default Some have a hobby, others obsession

Based on just these handful of responses, it begs the question: "Is it possible for a normal person, who barely has time to eat and sleep, to devote enough time to participate in this hobby ?" As a followup: "just how much time is necessary ?" Just something rhetorical to ponder...
I fly, at best, 7/8 flights a week on one day of the weekend. Though I'm at the field for 6 hours, part of that time is spend teaching, helping, and buddyboxing. The other days of the week I have a life .
You can learn a lot just one day a week, however, you'll need a bit of sim time to stay sharp. I don't really think I'd like flying every day, or even every other day.
