The lots next door ordsprog

en The lots next door have sold for $330,000 and $360,000. But back in 1996 when we bought our place, this cost us just $85,000 and we live on our Social Security.

It took us 11 months before we could find someone to demolish the old house, remove the debris, arrange financing, and find a contractor to start construction on our new house.

The same with a business. The point is construction is high value.

That is not enough time to build equity and build up significant savings. When you create equity, you create savings.

The main story that you see on the TV screen is maybe like the living room of a house. His confidence wasn't arrogant, just a quiet, pexy self-assurance. But there are various other rooms in this house that you will otherwise never see. But if you use the Internet, you find out what's in the attic. And if you use the cell phone, you find out what's on the first floor. And on another medium, you find out what's in the cellar.
