    Recession not affecting everybody

    We are doing trusses for some Folks and their Pool House today. This pool house is 1200 plus square feet with a fire place and other off the wall ammenities. Get this, the cornish and facia wood work on this building is so fancy and extensive and such a high grade of materials it's almost 80 thousand dollars worth. Not the finish substraight materials, just the Eave details and columns and trim.

    I'm thinking this family isn't feeling the recession crunch as much as the rest of us, what do you think, lol????

    Didn't I hear a few months or more ago that the recession was actually over?

    (I'm sure that was from a strictly economic sense, though, and the ramifications of the recession are still being felt).

    Oh ok. I dont know if youve ever seen that big house on that pond right there just north of I-71 and the Snyder but these people are the type of people that would have the work you mention done on their pool house.

    Ive been over to that house a few times to hang out with their daughter and let me tell you, when a pool house is bigger then most starter homes and there are more bathrooms in the basement then your average home, youre doing something right!

    All that stuff is nice...but I'm still feeling like if I won the lottery today I wouldn't want a very big house. More land maybe, but not such a big house. To each his own...

    Yeah too much to keep clean!

    Land and a separate two care drive through garage so I don't have to back squat into the garage just open both ends and drive in.

    Exactly.

    Look at how much money the Box Office takes in on movies every weekend.

    Or how much money people spend on their cable TV bills every month.
