The roofing issue seems like something that needed to be done, it was just put on the back burner. 

Plus you will have a $6000 stove maybe with an oversized gas line for the 8 burners, probably 15k to 20k for super fancy quartz counters or maybe concrete poured in place counters.OR maybe its a more modest house with good plumbing, foundation, electrical but still needs some roof, and then everything else inside.

In my experience, usually the burners corrode or the air handler / motor goes. 

From that money, the company pays nice fat commission to your investment advisor and keeps the rest as their profit.They potentially could invest it in anything else besides annuities.

Fat Little Ugly F******* :) They made fun of it then, but it sure turned out to be a killer bird!

Read some post or book or whatever somewhere and wanted to press to expand his net $4k monthly too $5k+, which no, pigs get fat and hog's get slaughtered. 

But plans often go awry, "Stuff Happens," and it should be good to still have a nice fat credit card to fall back on in case of emergencies.Also echoing what @Scott E. just said.

As he puts, it, "Fat lot of good it did me. 

Even if you don’t have a fat savings account, banks will be willing to work with you on the right deal if you have income to show.

You could probably equip it with a kitchenette, countertop convection oven, and induction burners to meet the needs of a studio.
