  • Get the nice house. You might not like the neighbors but you can hide from them in a nice house.

    Wait, if you get the recluse house, you won’t have neighbors, and you could always update the house slowly until it’s nice.

    Wait, over time, others will probably move next to you and it will no longer be a recluse house, so you’ll be stuck with neighbors AND a less nice house.

    Wait, they say fences make good neighbors so, if you get the nice house and then put up a fence…

    Is this helping?


  • Again, all of those are in essence stocks that can be lost in a crash, if someone hacks my account, the bank fails, etc. When it comes down to it, those are just numbers in an account that one day could go to zero. One could argue that is not likely to happen, but if it did, what recourse would I actually have?

    I retired at 52. I don’t need financial advice. My point was that I wanted a tangible asset. If I choose diamonds or gold someone here would get just as upset that those were essentially covered with blood and they are. I wouldn’t want to do cars because I don’t consider it wise, don’t have storage, don’t want to pay the insurance, etc. Real estate is an obvious choice. It makes a very good investment, but clearly in this thread it’s evil.
