re: #235 WindUpBird
My brother is sorta housepoor. I have TOO MANY PLANS to be house poor :P
A lot of people have their entire self-worth tied to their home. They have overbought into the American Dream.
IT’S ALL ABOUT THE HOUSE.
To me, as long as it will withstand the extremes of Chicago weather, keep me and my stuff warm and dry and secure from vermin —It will work.
I’d rather have lots of shoes, and dogs and be able to raise my kid the way I want.
