RE: What have I been up to?

Congrats on the new house. Owning a house is one area that I do disagree with James Altucher on. Especially if you didn't over buy. Which is what James seems to have done, based on his writing.

Again congrats on the house!

Thanks!

Yeah there are pluses and minuses on all living arrangements, but as long as it works for the situation, then roll with it.

We had sold our other home for a profit and were able to put a fair downpayment and have extra for renovations.

The idea is we were flexible and had a good "in" for our last place and were able to sell at a hot time.

We are staying with a friend which facilitated selling before having a house to buy and allowed us to downsize to save money on monthly payments and lower interest rate.
