You need to be prepare... I mean mentally.  I was lost in the air once, and it started to rain and getting darker... Really freak me and coach out anyway, in general, you will need 50-60 hours flying time and an extra 50-60 hours ground instruction to get your license.  so if the
airplane rental costs $60-70/hr and instruction costs $30-40/hr, then we are talking about $6000 to $7000.  I took mine in States, so it's in USD...

"you will have to fly serveral times every year to keep the license active. the worst part is that you can only fly with the model that you get license for ... "

this is not quite true.  your first license is good for all singe-engine airplanes.  then
the next step is the license for multi-engine planes, which is well beyond what you need to worry about now.

i think the regulation is that you have to have three takeoffs/landings in the last 90 days before you can fly yourself or taking passengers.  the common sense is that when you go to an airplane rental place and ask for a rental, they will not let you fly just because you have a license.  unless you are a frequent customer whom
they are comfortable with, you have to fly with their personnel a couple of times before they let you rent an airplane and fly yourself.  of course, you will need to pay these test flights
including their personnel time for these tests.
