re: If you had 500K cash...what would you do with it?

I would buy the 20 acres that I have been dreaming about for years.

It’s kinda rolling hill savannah type property with native grasses and live oaks and cedars. It has a 2.5 acre pond. It’s gorgeous.

The last time I approached the owner, he wanted $300k. A bit steep for my desire to also build a house on it.

So I would take the cash and buy the property and then use the remaining cash and the equity in my current home to build a new house.

I would then live my rest of my days debt free on my dream property (within reason dream property).
