Never forget what they took from you....

I can confirm... Everything is closed up now. Won't be going anywhere until after Christmas.

Maybe 1000 or so wishes of "Merry Christmas" in person this year. Not a single "happy holidays."

Lol at Google recognizing it as linguistically alien

They were asking for $200k in exchange for 250 sq ft of house.

And that's not even the funniest part.. They were asking for that much after the city of Duluth loaned them $198.8k for the plot and to build it.

It's on a "diminutive lot" worth $8.8k. and they somehow apparently spent $190k to build this.

🤔 I wonder where that money actually went

Funny thing is, quite a few libs, when they found out I was moving to the UP, recommended I move to Duluth in particular instead.

"You'll like it better there, there's more culture."

They're considering using it as an affordable housing rental unit, but:

"As designed, the sleeping quarters for the home are located in a loft that’s accessible only by a ladder. But Keppers said that if a mattress could be incorporated into the ground floor design, leaving the upper level to be used for storage, the home might pass muster as a rental unit."

Lol, more evidence of how much of a scam this was: housing in Duluth isn't that bad in terms of cost. Median home cost is $243,200. They were asking for 83% the cost of the median home for a small room with no yard.

Me spreading Christmas cheer

I keep telling you guys that cities are bad....

Whereever people are gathering in the largest amount possible at the time and region... Stay away

Decided I'm going to do one of these per month as a way to say "thank you" for reading and engaging with my content.

Might occasionally do more than one a month on occasions like Christmas, September 6th, etc.
