I’m 52 and can retire at any time I want...
And my house will be paid off this year and it took 18 years to do it. I guaranty I am into my place far less than people buying 2500 sq feet on a quarter acre today.
But I do get your point, it just doesn’t apply to me very well.

Driving through some nice neighborhoods in Orem. Huge beautiful homes, tiny lots

I love having a yard big enough for my kids to play in. Worth the extra work.j

Big home and big yards are overrated

Give me 2000 - 2500 square feet on 1/3 - 1/2 acre any day over a big house.

A large yard seems like more work than a large house to me.

Nah I think they are properly rated

And that is why people have to work until 60plus. Mainly because of their home.

I said large homes.

It applies just as well. It is a math problem. It cost you time.
Baron

Not if that wasn’t what I wanted and was looking to do...

That math problem depends on income.

Obviously. It is a function of income, time, and your personal utility curve
Baron
5/24/19 7:01pm
My point was it may not have cost him any time.

Time is always a factor.
Baron
5/24/19 8:31pm
Not always
bluecougar1985

And that income takes time.

Not extra time in regards to retirement, which was your argument.

Extra work was my point.
Baron
5/25/19 10:56am
How would that create extra work before retirement in the example I provided?

You have to work to meet expensee. Every expense you have makes you work that much longer
Baron

You can’t be serious, right?
bluecougar1985

Not necessarily...
CoachSpeak

I treat everything as an expense lesuire etc. You have to decide what you want and how long it

Yeah, his humble abode (which he had to list the sq ft on) isn't large.

I think it’s weird when couples in their 60s build big homes and claim it’s for their grandchildren...

Isn't that what the 6500 sf "cabin" is for?

Big yards are the best "character builder" you can have for kids.

No way. Where else are you supposed to get your self-esteem from?

Just know that if you buy an older home with more land you can factor in new

If you are walking distance from a school or park it alleviates the need
