Right now I have two sinks. I could sure use more counter top space and
was wondering what to do.


Would you eliminate one sink, or would it be best to keep two sinks for
resale value, even though I plan to stay here?


Thanks.

What, are you retarded? Of all the lame ass **** that comes up on here,
the one that fries me the most is this insane worship of the God of
Resale Value. If you're staying there, **** the resale value. Put in
lime green shag carpet. Use T1-11 for flooring like my friend's old boss
did. Paint the shingles pink.

Tear out the worthless-to-you second sink and give yourself the
countertop room you want. Sheesh. I bet you bought a new car with
leather seats and then instead of enjoying them, you covered them with
plastic to protect the Almighty Resale Value, didn't you?


In spite of your lurid language, Smitty, I totally agree with you. The
resale myth is done, gone, caput, with the housing market the way it
is. People badly need some reality checks these days as the economy
staggers along. McMansions are a drag on the market, and like it or
not, practicality and frugality along with common sense may just be
the wave of the future.
