No. My wife inherited her mother’s house last April. We came down here in July to clean it out and sell it. The wife talked me into just keeping it and staying here. As much as I enjoyed our property in TN, and building our house, the reality was I only had time to work on the house on the weekends, and it seemed to rain every weekend. A year in and I had the foundation piers, subfloor, and about 90% of the framing done.
Spent most of the rest of her inheritance fixing the place up. I used a bit of the money I saved over the years for the TN house to pay off some debt, bought a small airplane, and a few project cars. I’ve retired for the time being, and we are able to live off my Navy retirement and the wife’s disability. You know, like a couple of government moochers. lol.
The only things I really miss from TN are how quiet it was, and the ladies I worked with at the Domestic Violence Shelter (not the clients though). Other than that, Huntsville/Oneida had a little too much of the hypocritical type of Bible thumping for me.
I'm glad to hear that you're realizing the American Dream by inheriting wealth and receiving government checks. That's how it's done.
