Curious to see that when it's up... and how you mounted.
Just read that. Is this guy for real? This sounds like a big joke... on the reader.Now *here's* a unique take on why to *not* pay off your mortgage early.
Millionaire who bought a home at 26 regrets paying off his mortgage early: 'This is the biggest downside no one tells you'
If you're trying to pay off your mortgage early, good for you. I bought my first home at 26 and did it in 12 years. But here's the biggest downside no one tells you.www.cnbc.com

"I stopped aggressively looking for new freelance consulting work. I went from taking on three contracts per month to just one. So instead of working 60 hours, I was only working 20 hours."
Wait... you got a tax *refund*?!?
Bought a big solar system and a teeny tiny wind-power-credit-eligible device, so yes, a refund.Wait... you got a tax *refund*?!?
That's remarkably quick.
The 3-D walkthrough has that photo. It’s kind of a mess in that area: unfinished and just used as outdoor storage.
Boomer fancy. I think the garage-centric architecture in the neighborhood would give me nightmares.
Not enough bedrooms for that. It was built by some old person with something very particular in mind (probably trying to skirt zoning laws and partition it but busted per the estimation of the realtor).
Yeah I looked some more and theres also too many windows to be a mormon mansion. What's the appeal location wise? Is this considered a bedroom community for Denver metro?
No, much too far from Denver for commuting, and over a mountain pass that gets a fair amount of snow. Its draw is that it's about 20 minutes away from the Winter Park ski resort, and in the thick of other biking/hiking/summer activities.
I like the prospect of a 1:45ish drive on Friday night and Sunday afternoon. Given that I'm happy enough with the Winter Park terrain then this is fine by me.
Oh yeah the Cle Elum/Roslyn/Easton housing markets are reflecting west side bedroom community pricing these days. The rational is "we used to commute from Everett but now that take 2 hours. Now it's just 1 hour and we get to drive 75 mph the whole way!"
maybe the westbound express lane will solve all ills?! Also we'd be leaving early afternoon on Sundays per my vision.What Bizarro-Land are *you* living in??
Well, I *do* admire your optimism!
You should see the cottage traffic shitshow around Toronto. Every weekend in the summer there is a mass exodus out to the boonies. The traffic on the freeways coming back into the city on Sunday afternoons is absolutely bananas.What Bizarro-Land are *you* living in??
Sounds like I-70 'round these parts... except 70 is mostly a 2-laner for the mountain portion. You folks have larger freeways, don'tcha?
When the express lane opens it'll be 3 until Floyd Hill, 2 just for a few miles until the first tunnel before Idaho Springs, then 3 to just past the origin of Hwy 40, 2 to the Eisenhower Tunnel.
I wish. Toronto has one freeway that has some spots that are like 15 lanes wide, but that is the only freeway which crosses the entire city (besides one very expensive toll road), so it is always fucked up with traffic.
To keep this on-topic... this sounds pretty much like U.S. 40 from Tabernash to I-70... mostly just a two-lane "country" road. This portion is actually *better* in the winter because this is a major summer thoroughfare to get to a *bunch* of popular places in the summer.
I looked at that road and yeah that is what a lot of "main" roads out to cottage country is like.
There are two poorly times traffic lights in the two stop light town of Sultan Washington that backs up Highway 2 for a good 20 miles every weekend.I looked at that road and yeah that is what a lot of "main" roads out to cottage country is like.
Its amazing how one simple stop sign or slow traffic light can fuck up traffic for hours.
