I am 45. I hope I would be good enough to play the violin in friends' house or at the park by the age 65. Smile

You certainly seem to love music.

Shame on me. I don't think I've ever listened to Schumann's Violin Concerto. I checked my CD and LP collections, but no.

My daughter takes a private violin lesson. Her fee is $30 per 30 min, once a week. It would be $45 for one hour.
My son takes a piano lesson. His fee is $13 per 30 min, once a week.

I hope learning violin would ...

For $53, I would go for it. Case itself would sell at over $20.
Once you get advanced and notice its poor quality you can upgrade. You can either resell it or keep it for backup or for experimenting ...
