I consider it a bad idea to have a multi-level house without even
a half
bathroom on each level.

But if you bought the house when you were 20....

I am living in my 4th purchased item of real estate. A house
purchased
in my 20s would not suit my current needs. I sell and buy as my needs
change through life.

I guess you're one of those who somehow managed to pay off the
mortgage of the 1st three.

You don't have to have paid off the mortgage to be able to change
houses, stupid.

True. We just put all our efforts into paying our mortgage(s) off asap.


Wow, I have to thank Mr. Rod for the laugh calling you stupid for paying
off your mortgage.

On my third house and, of course, no mortgage.* My secont house started
at 15% and re-fi a couple of times.* Can't say I've done everything
right over the years but I knew retirement would be much better with no
debt.

Easier said than done.* Expenditure always exceeds income.* Unless you
have a magic wand or are really good at breaking into safes, you'll
always be in debt.

Only if you spend way too much and/or have a poorly paid job.
I've managed to get away with spending a little too much once in a
while, while never earning a LOT and I've managed to "retire" debt
free. Never broke into any safes either. I learned after spending way
too much on a new vehicle ONCE when I was about 23 and have not owned
a new vehicle since. Spent a thousand too much on the odd used car
since, but have saved 10s of thousands by repairing them myself and
keeping them on the road for years, or even decades.

Time to go out and start my 50 year old power mower to mow the grass
on my mortgage free 1/3 acre lot anf then do a bit more work on my 24
year old pickup truck getting ready to have the new box repainted to
match so I can hopefully get another 8 or 10 years out of it.

Then relax with my first wife - one of the best "deals" I ever made -
