Beginning year 4 as a homeowner

Joe brings up a good point

here.

 

I've known several folks over the years that are "house rich, cash poor".  Or "stuff rich, cash poor".  Once they get done paying on a massive home, new cars, the super duper off the chart cell phone bill, the cable and/or satellite, et cetera, they can't even afford a papa johns pizza.

That's a gorgeous space!

If I need to ask the value, I can't afford it. Nor,also do I want it either.
Nice for them, not for us. I too like my cracker jack box.
However, many can afford the mansion, and they don't eat much pizza. Probaly Pappa John also. He just retired.
I'll have clams casino, oysters Rockefeller, lobster, Brazilian turf, escargot, etc. on a special occasion same as anyone else can. Just not on a yaght, or at our Mediteranian or lake Como villa.

FWIW

I never order papa johns unless there is a coupon or something.

 

Like in years past, if and IF the Pirates win, we can order online and use BUCSWIN50 and get 50 per cent off pizza. that in my mind is the only affordable way to order his crap.  Pay full price for a large, hell, I can go to my local watering hole and get a friggin steak, real spuds, and some frost libations for the same price.

And I can exercise my 2nd class citizen rights there as well!
