We could have gotten it for $1.6MM had we gone to the negotiating table.I invest because I want to own the most precious commodity in the world.

It'd hard to scale the buyer side, because the buyer consumes the most precious resource you have - Time. 2.

Former suburban dwelling millenials and empty nesters alike are finding the lifestyle in these areas very fun and desirable.Furthermore, the housing policies in these regions necessarily constrain stock (article from The Atlantic), so real estate is traded more like a precious metal than something manufactured. 

I don't have the time to represent other people anymore, because I'm too busy with my investment business now, except if a past client really needs some help with a problem.Speaking of time, as I said, extra time is short and precious for me right now, so I'm asking myself why I'm participating in an online form again.

It came as a shock and really opened up my eyes to how precious life is.

And for the reminder of the flexibility real estate offers to parents, that's such a huge thing for me to keep in mind...it'd be so much harder if I was still working for the man, lol, and I'd lose all this precious time with my baby boy.I'm also glad you mentioned finding social groups, because I've been meaning to do that anyway for a different reason, and I totally forgot!  

But to pay it early I would have to spend precious 1978, 1979 + dollars just to get the $329.64 back each month in 1998.

Time is your most precious commodity.

You might can get back money if you lose it but time is what is most precious.
