We are closing on a house in the next couple of weeks. The house we are buying has a pool.

I am probably in the same boat as you, just a month or 2 behind. I am in the house hunting process. In my last house, my wife wanted to build a pool. I absolutely refused. I think they are gigantic money pits, as this thread clearly proves. We have been back and forth and sometimes the arguments got a little heated. The compromise would be that if we ever moved, we would buy a house with a pool. I guess let some other sucker pay for that install. I got one small kid so hopefully she will love it and I will be pushing my wife in it every day whether she wants to or not just because she had to have it.
