Trumpet B(b) and Trumpet C: two superb, used professional-grade trumpets each equipped with 3 pistons and better intonation than most any tuba available...about 1000 bucks each
I'd practice on it for 3.5 years (instead of 35) and get a whole lot more gigs playing trumpet "very well" than playing tuba "great".
