This man teaches the greatest lesson in the concept of  "Home is for Living". A home is for personal and family comfort living; it is your nest and anything beyond that is just for showing off.

    Hi CW,

    Certainly, we cannot invest like Warren Buffet but we can aspire to keep a home like him. ;)

    Ouch! LOL!

    Different strokes for different folks.

    As for me, home is not bricks and mortar.

    Home is where I find warmth, love, and peace.

    Since we can't put a "value" to these emotions, hence no need to mark to market.

    Apologies; but I poisoned by Buddhism...
