Okay --- I'll continue on my soap box for one last post...

To do what I'm saying -- might involve selling your house and living off the equity (becoming a renter during the build)... it might involve (if you're young) living in your parents basement for a year... it most likely WILL involve some sacrifice in order to get started. You MIGHT fail... You might use up all the equity you got when you sold your house - and the project doesn't get completed (because you're a lazy POS and don't have the skills you thought you had...) or the market for what you built just isn't there.... BUT at least you would have TRIED and would have LEARNED and would have given it your best shot.

Now -- Remember my buddy I told you about that worked his fingers to the bone with a restaurant and buying poopie little rental houses - and building on this and working for 20 years to get somewhere... here's his house - across Cozy Cove from from my house (old house - I SACRIFICED THIS HOUSE IN ORDER TO MOVE TO A PLACE WHERE I COULD HAVE A SHED FOR MY CARS -- which was more important to me - than to have this view...)
