It's a good thing imagination is not required when the story being told is 100% true, because you just can't make this stuff up. Join Jeff as he once again steps into a world of unexpected chaos. Watch him from the time he unexpectantly retires, moves to a town four states away, and buys a house absolutely sight unseen. See how he quickly learns that real estate ads should come with the disclaimer, some assembly required.
Walk with Jeff as he tries to understand the just how hard and easy it can be to give money away. From the original home purchase, to hiring the help (when available), each new situation presented a unique and unforeseen perspective. From broken doors, missing walls, and Confederate flags, each room in his new house added another unexpected challenge to his version of the money pit.
Situations Jeff encountered along the way include:
-Wife demanding when and where to retire - his input not required
-How to compromise on where to live by letting her pick
-Purchasing a house that others secretly want
-Selling a home, that no one is totally happy with
-Moving day with rocket scientists
-Fitting in a rural Texas town, making friends (and enemies)
-Endless project lists and home warranties
-Learning to deal with heat, snakes, bugs, and more
-Surprise twists and turns and happy endings?
Each situation encountered on the surface appear to be totally normal but when Jeff gets done, you are left laughing, shaking your head, and wanting more.
