My house was built in 1947. Everyone
before me installed asphalt shingles.

When I had it re-roofed, I would have
been foolish to change to steel.

Bull****.

I'd never recover the additional cost.

Thats not what its about.

It's always about cost, stupid.

Bull**** it is. If it was you'd be 'living' in a ****ing tent, stupid.

If I spend $20,000 rather than $5,000 on a roof, then I have
$15,000 less to spend on other things that my house needs.

More mindless bull****. Why is the wealthiest country
in the entire ****ing world 'living' in stupid stick
houses with stupid shingles and tiny little windows ?

Are you personally that poorly paid ? Figures.

Every single decision involves that sort of tradeoff.

Must be why you 'live' in a ****ing
tent, much cheaper than a real house.

That's why we do most of our own
home maintenance and improvements,

Sorry, didn't realise you are such a desperate pov on the minimum wage.

except for things that require specialized knowledge or equipment,
or things that we are physically incapable of doing.
