If you want to learn to smoke, would you read an Allan Carr book in reverse?

If you want to get into a relationship, would you read a book on how to break up in reverse?


Maybe reading how to do the opposite would help more than the actual books that tell us how to do what we want?

you're spot on there Merri
so instead of buying assets - buy liabilities, instead of owning - rent, instead of making yourself rich - make someone else

Still haven't met anyone who's made themselves rich by paying off a mortgage conversing

Most seem to think it's a millstone around their neck.

Hi Serene, wave

Not only that...when you own you need to upkeepdoh

So, let alone the mortgage, its all the other stuff.

Currently having a roof restoration done, just had a bathroom redone, and my retaining walls... I am quite broke.. sigh

So I can be poor without trying tooo hard... Jeez.
