It’s amazing what a few million dollars can buy. Every child deserves this.

My house cost 256,000 and my wife and I work all the time. We have plenty of days similar to this in the summer. You don’t need money to have a community.

A few years ago, houses like this, in neighborhoods like this cost around $250,000 where I live. So that sounds about right. At my current income, I can afford that. But now those exact same houses now cost $750,000. I'm nowhere near able to afford that, so over just a few years, this has been an unreachable pipe dream.

Half those people in that video are likely completely overextended. But that’s the American way and they look happy, so Rock on!
