I think at some point you have to recognize you had a good run and take your chips off the table.

For example, if China invades Taiwan and Taiwan implodes its chip foundries that would be really really bad for the world...

I think it is Made to Stick by Chip and Dan Heath

Hard to tell where the chips might fall. 

Perfect example Oregon ( Hillsboro tech Hud) got a massive amount of Chips Federal Grants as Chips are seen as a National need ( dont want to rely on Taiwan)  Intel is largest employer in state . the city of Hillsboro identified 1700 acres to bring in to ensure future high Tech growth ( got to have the land)  the no growthers and farmers and newspapers scream we cant have sprawl U cant do this.. we have plenty of land already in the Urban Growth areas.. while thats true very few parcels are over 40 acres in size.

This way you get the more durable finish on the doors, so they don't chip as easy but you save money by not replacing all boxes too.Counters: granite comes in all shapes and sizes.  

However, with the market booming and prices high, I felt it was too risky to put all my chips on the table for a single property.

The floor is not super out of wack, more just some imperfections of chips and some hills, overall is it worth doing for what it's for?

I guess I just rolled with it because I had 45 days to play the game or call in my chips with a +30% payout to the government.   

Furnishings that may not already be presentI've spent anywhere from $0 to $8000 depends on YOU, how much Chip and Joanna you watch, and depends on the property. 3.
