  @Handymans342 wealth is measured in the amount hugs went you get home. Not $$ in the bank. We are waiting for your occupation.

  Handyman342 is, well, the handyman! without the 342 anymore   (I do like official FL Rinker greeter!  Kind of similar to the Walmart one...)
  
  Let's see, I also work on things that find bad things/people far away.  Both Electrical & Systems engineer, but mainly manage money and lead people nowadays.  Hoping to end this job early and not only become a live-aboard, but work on boats as a hobby (to help support the habit)

  Define rich.  To me, rich is having a waterfront house in Florida.  (Ignore the fact that I have a waterfront house in Michigan)

  Vacant lots on a canal in Cape Coral are $375k - $500k or more.  Houses on canals start around $750k.  That's not cheap to me.
  
  I think we have different definitions of "rich" and "cheap".

  For $750k in Cape Coral, you are going to have one of the better homes there.  A median home on a canal there goes for $300-400k.  A median home on water on the Chesapeake around Annapolis?  Let's just say I don't have one, cause I wouldn't have a boat, a car, umm, or anything else except a giant mortgage!

  I'm rich alright.  Trying to figure out how we are going to afford a second story addition to our 999 sqft ranch home.  Selling the boat wouldn't solve any of the money issues.
