If working and generating income leads to higher priced houses, why not stop working, have fun instead? Maybe all guys should stop slaving away and stop working. Watch house prices drop by 50%. : )

Years ago, I was sitting in the living room reading Bill Gates's book (something about a Road). In it he stated that he didn't much care for gambling because he had long ago satisfied whatever material needs he might have so winning money didn't thrill him, but what he was continually in short supply of was time. He said he would gladly gamble if he could get time out of it instead of money. I put the book down and repeated that passage to my husband and then said, "Isn't it a shame it always seems that even if you have lots of money you don't have lots of time and if you have lots of time you don't have any money?" John puts down his paper and says, "I'd settle for either one." That's when I realized that it really is true that most men really do live lives of "quiet desperation".
