unfortunately unless i scrap the rules that i have played the game by since launch, i am likely a good 5 years off affording a FC.. and that is assuming i play at the rate i did pre child which seems unlikely. i am 3000 hrs into the game and have under 1.5bill to my name. it is possible when there is an outlier exploity thing which occurs again i may just hammer it as a 1 off just to get a FC and then bancrupt myself after getting it and securing it for as long as i can, but last time i "bent" some of my rules it completely pulled the rug out of any urge for me to play the game.
So alas, I may never get a FC. (I dont even have the rank for a cutter or corvette yet)
IF I did however that is exactly how i would use it, as a store for potentially CG goodies from mining.
