Guest Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 There are only two choices with everything - Do it or don't do it - and then live with the result. That's one thing that all old people should know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Only two certainties in life, death and taxes.' Don't know who said that but they sure got it right. However there's a big chunk inbetween to do what you will. Sell the house and spend the money on a world cruise or something... Edited February 11 by Anna B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wearysmith Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 4 hours ago, crookesey said: As against paying rent until you drop. Good point. Never seen the reasoning behind paying all that rent to make someone else rich. We found a mortgage was the best way to go. After death duties and the like, at least the kids/grandkids will get something. Probably not a lot, but something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
