?? How's that? I've had a pool everywhere I lived for the last ten years. IME the only headache is making small talk with the guy who comes over once a week to do something to it to keep it nice.
Isn’t that what You do? Some people call Reddit “social media” or even an “app” lol. This and Reddit are just message boards. You’re on social media RIGHT NOW OYT
Controversial take: having a pool actually is a value in and of itself, even if you're not swimming in it. Think of it this way: how much more would that house be worth if it was waterfront?
I rarely use our pool but I love staring out at it and seeing the sun reflecting off the water.
this is retarded goy logic. stupid birdbrain women think that if you spend $x, it increases your market value by $x. lolno.
some shitty $300k vegas house in a neighborhood with a bunch of other $300k shit vegas houses isnt gonna sell for $550k bc it has a pimpin' pool.
expensive renovations only make sense if theyre commensurate with the neighborhood and you're not making your house by far the most expensive house on the block
Yes, obviously upgrading to be the most expensive house on the block is not a good investment. But a pool is nice even if you don't swim in it. These are not contradictory points.

I know a prole husband who built a "home office" for his wife during covid. He redid the walls, installed all kinds of bookshelves, lighting, and even a custom door. He told me she worked in there maybe twice and then her company went RTO. Last time I was there I saw laundry and kids toys scattered all over the place.

that is crazy, idk what my parents paid excactly for our pool back in the 90's but it was of a similar size, although a normal shape, but it couldn't have been more than 30k, thing still pools perfectly well, 10x is a wild amount for a couple decades

The travertine blocks around the pool probably pushed the cost up by 25% or more. We redid our pool with travertine this time last year and cost us $70k all in. Would have been $38k wo travertine.
