I get to choose some new shingles and underlayment.

A typical roof with architectural (asphalt) shingles has a life of approximately 25-30 depending on your locality.

It has older asphalt shingles that I'm hoping will last another 3-5 years before I put stone-coated steel on.

Also I occasionally do a tear off and shingle a roof. 

Since it is an input to lots of things in our day to day lives (groceries, computers, shingles...), the price of those will go down as well, lowering the cost of living

That was 30 year shingles.

If you're a roofer, a Lumper- all you do is carry stacks of shingles and tear off, you can make $50,000 per year.  

My prof who taught it was the first one to computer ize the MLS system.. before that it was all the big book  LOL..  

I just closed on a 2/1 that needs renovation (kitchen, bath, paint, shingles) in a good safe area.
