[quote=walterwhite]It does seem like a not unreasonable insurance policy. I see it more as a gift to my wife, since I almost never buy her anything expensive (she never even got an engagement ring fer crying out loud. Since this house speaks to her , I can kind of view the extra high price of this house as a kind of gift.[/quote]
There you go. How’s that saying go, a happy wife is a happy marriage.
I like BGIG’s view on real estate as a form of insurance.
