New Jersey.
true. but we've been in the house for almost 10 years, and had a place for 3 years before that too, so it's not like it was our starter home and we had some scratch to make it happen.stosh said:

Trust me... unless you have 4 kids or something, anything over 2100_sf you are just showing off...
I'm not being critical of your home or anything...narlus said:
If I had 200k to spend, I would prefer to have a smaller home for the money with better trim and more detailed.

so what if you are a childless couple? is anything over 1400 sq ft showing off?N8 said:
narlus said:
Nope.. 2100_sf is more than plenty for 2-4 people.
The one thing everyone needs is a 3 car garage though...

I pick up a copy at luchtime... read chapt 1 already...
Intersting... thanks for the lead!
It reminds me of a young childless couple that was looking at my house and commenting that they liked everything but they thought the kitchen was too small based on all the other houses they were looking at and based on pictures in mag's they'd seen. When I asked them how they use the kitchen (as in does one or both of them cook at the same time, etc...) they said they didn't ever cook at home. So I asked them why they wanted to pay $16,000 ($110/SF) for a space they never used... they didn't know what to say.
what if you have two 2000 sq ft homes; is that showing off too?N8 said:
be sure to send me the updated N8's guide to life when it comes out...i wanna see what else i am non-compliant w/ .

Of course this rule-of-thumb doesn't apply to you because you are 'special.'
well i don't have two homes, so i was wondering how it worked in N8 algorithm. is it a summation?
oh, i've got 5 bikes too. that's probably 4 too many.

Well, if you had two 2000_sf homes you should sell one and give the proceeds to the Tsunami victims who live 3 people-per-meter deep...
Goog Morning Stosh! (yes it is still morning here)
The USPS just dropped this off! Wohoo!
Wow! Second frame in a week that has been delivered to my work, makes life exciting!
Other than that, just busy here at work. Have a great day!

seriously, though - if you are steadfast in yr contention that a house larger than 2100 sq ft is showing off, i would infer that you also think two houses (as long as combined, they exceed the magic N8 number of 2100 sq ft) are showing off. as a builder, i would think you want to maximize yr market.N8 said:
which one is it?

Man I can't believe it got to you that fast! USPS must like you more than me.
I'm alive....and at work.
It's only because they found out I'm this really hot chick that likes to ride bikes.MMcG said:Man I can't believe it got to you that fast! USPS must like you more than me.
you damn showoff!Shyrmp said:
have fun w/ the haro, looks like a good one. what was the other frame?
The other one is a Be One frame that is "technically" Orven's, but I figure if I just start riding it after it gets built up he'll never notice, right?narlus said:
Ah yes, the "Bill Fairy" We have one of those tooI Are Baboon said:

My house is more than 2100_sf and we have the necessary 3 bay garage (a single and a double) and it's just me the man and the cat. And no, we aren't showing off.We believe it gives us plenty of room for our toys, the necessary man space (aka workshop), bar space and kitchen area! Although, another garage bay would be nice!

One can NEVER have too much garage space....
