well, it’s like the folks who maintain castles in Europe. Maybe a couple, and they buy an old castle and they fix it up and they live there and it’s just always a nightmare. They live in one or two rooms because it’s too expensive to heat an entire castle. I’m saying that this fellow should sell his house and maybe go to the villages in Florida and he can get a little golf cart and drive around and have his pic of the 120-year-old ladies. I’m trying to help him. Oh yeah, and then he can also sell his house.

For 60% the monthly rental I can have my lawn mowed for a year.

For 40% the monthly rental I can have most landscaping removed so lawn maintenance is all that is required on a recurring basis.

I have bookcases filled with books. Young people have cellphones.

I need the space of a single-family house.

Young people need a bedroom (and a bedroom for each sex of their children), which if in an apartment allows them to spend time with the children instead of with grass.

European families generally live in apartments. Almost all families in east Asia live in apartments.

Old dude may have already sold his house and be living off a reverse mortgage.
