What's the most you've bid on an item? [I Love to Shop On Ebay]

@yeronlyman some things are worth the splurge

@iQuit indeed

My purchase opened many doors and is worth double the initial payment

@yeronlyman i Wish i had you wise investment know how 😭I'd be richer for it!

@iQuit just right place right time

In the 1990’s I inverted in shares and was lucky then too
Paid the deposit on a small house and the small house valued 2.5 times value in 3 years... just lucky

@yeronlyman things in the 90s seemed simpler but back then I was in grade school 🤣

You're right about property investments

I've loved investing in a home ...but 💔 home repair is one of the many issues you discover as an adult...lol

Most difficult for me is roof repair and electrical

@iQuit like and appreciate you thoughts

It’s all relative and you got to start somewhere

I’m good at diy to a point
Home payments and repair has been cheap compared to raising four kids
Haha

That’s why I justify 10 hour days
I don’t complain though
It’s my privilege 😌😬🤗

@yeronlyman i hope it's not too much if i ask

how do you fix a roof?
I patched it up
But this winter mahem
Somehow loosened the patch

I'm afraid of squeezing into the attic crawl space
What do you suggest?


I have no one to do it for me so ... I buy all these repair books and try to diy

Lol if I had kids I'd be more of a mess
Idk how some adults handle so much

@iQuit we have different roof systems usually than US

Ours are tiles or slates not shingles
Roofs are specialties for water leakage
You need a pro for that

@yeronlyman 😅 i was afraid of that
Thank you for your honesty

@iQuit that’s life sometimes
Peace 🤗

@iQuit I have done roof & electrical...plumbing...natural gas...DHWH...furnace...drywall...door & window...siding...new sheathing...
