Forget it. Just stay home, redo the house, AND rent a cabin.
Im sure some FReepers can agree that for that amount of money I can not only buy some land in a place like Texas, but put down money on a House on the land as well and maybe still have some money left.
If I had $170,000, I’d pay off my house AND my student loans.
The sad part is these folks actually brag they have been to sea when those claims belong to those who have “hot bunked” on an old diesel boat or a Fletcher Class can.
