I needed a termite quote. 3500. I needed plumbing 3800 estimate. I needed electrical work estimate 2200. I needed floors redone. 22000 dollars for joists and demo. 4000 to install hardwood. I needed pool pump repair. 1200 estimate. Septic tank replacement 8000. Pool Screen repairs 2500. Lawn service 150 every time he shows up 2x a month. Food for 1 , 130 a week.
I make 6 figures. No I can’t keep up. Delayed retirement since 2020.
I have some work to be done on my house. I’m putting it off until I can get a little more money. Let’s go, Brandon!

You can do the flooring yourself—I did, and I’m an old lady. Do the lawn yourself. If I lived near you I’d come over and do it with my 22” Toro walk behind mower for $150, even if it’s a couple of acres (I cut my own acreage that way every week, despite asthma and herniated spinal disks). And $130 for food for a week for one person? Sheesh, I live not too far from DC where food is truly expensive, and I’m betting you could cut back quite a bit on that. So there are ways you could save money on your expenses. Maybe not enough to let you retire immediately, but enough to let you put money aside. I’m sorry about the termites, electrical work, and septic. It sounds as though you’ve had everything fall on your head at the same time, unfortunately. Kind of in the same boat here.
