Too bad about your friend. My wife loves to fly places. Some pilots don't find wives who care and suffer like he did. He should have sold you half a share to cut the costs!

He tried to sell me half, but I just didn't want to deal with his idea of maintenance. Real cut rate. Too cut rate for safety. I tried the on-line renewal. Got frustrated with the "Systems" approach, and while the weekend thing is a pain, it is less a pain than the on-line and multiple exams on what I see as nonsense info. Guess I have been doing it too long (38 years) to have much patience with the "new" style they keep pushing.
