Your friend should have bought a car already restored. They say to restore a car yourself would cost more than it is actually worth...like your friend's story shows. It is pretty cool though.
That is life for yeah....full of lessons to learn.
Well, you will not need to worry about where you will do your business...it is all right there in those porta potties. One could recycle liquids and retrofit a shower...and, you have enough room to stand up too.
I think we are undergoing a huge transition in society and many of us don't even recognize it. With this Covid, we have already undergone something huge. But more to come I think. ...and perhaps not all for the bad.
Robert...I bet if somebody really shopped around, you might be able to get it cheaper. However, things are in the process of change here. Housing is becoming scarce around here....people are moving in. Again, law of economics....with people moving in, the demand is increasing. The same with cities Robert. That is why rent is not that cheap in cities. High demand (large population) and limited supply (only so many places for people to live in cities). = high prices.
Location has a major role is pricing...it is the countryside here...well...actually more like the woods. The law of economics kicks in...supply and demand. This is a huge supply of land and a low demand because of the small population. However, things are changing around here. Many are moving out of cities and moving to areas of the country like here. In fact, many banks are investing in land around here. It is called God's country here...we have next to zero pollution.
Now about the pushing of the buttons..
Just like people moving out from the cities to live here...they too will be pushing buttons to make their money. More and more, people are doing their jobs from over the internet. :)
I cannot reveal my trade secret...last thing I need is competition.
No Patti...it was a furnace. Yes, I could return it but the vendor has a 20% restock fee or $200 and the return shipping fee will be about the same. By the time I am done, I will be out about $400. I think there is another property I might be able to put it to use with or I will just try to sell it myself and hopefully get about 7 or 800 out of it.
In reference to being a landlord....well, just the term containing the word lord in it seems somewhat off-putting to me. I wonder how tenants would feel. ....that is neither here nor there...just something that resonates with me..and felt I should share.
But being a landlord, I have heard from many who have tried it and it seems to be a very difficult task. I cannot imagine how being one today would be during these Covid times...where paying rent has been deemed unessential.
Anyway, I gather a wide scope of situations in your blog...and chose to comment on the one I did.
Yes about lower standards. I wonder if I am even ready for another relationship. It has been so long. I don't even know if I would know where the hole is....when we go play pool.
just me being righteous I suppose
Good point Tiger.I do like space exploration though.
