How are you going to get it into where you live?

Pianos are very heavy.

Don't get a Grand.

Not worth the time, pain, effort and money unless you are a concert pianist.

Upright is fine

But a Grand would go well with my top hat, cane and monocle.

True, and it is rather difficult to drape Sultry jazz singers in revealing evening dresses over an upright...

Normal pianos make you look like a loser.

Grand pianos show that you are super cool, like Elton John.
