I would love to own my horse one day

I can afford it and all the costs to own one , Ive spent most of my teenage years riding horses and volunteering most weekends at the stables. I just dont have time to look after one because I have an very busy life and I work nights so im waiting until im retired and then I will buy one then. Im hoping to do horse riding lessons again once Ive learnt to drive. I dont want to leave it for someone else to look after , theres no point owning one if you cant commit the time to one.
