Family Balance Sheet
JUNE 4, 2015
When a building in our town went into foreclosure in 2012, we considered the opportunity to own. We crunched the numbers, spoke with our accountant, and after much deliberation and negotiation, we bought the building that summer. Our business was doing well and it seemed like the right time for us to buy.

If you want to get fancy, draw, paint or sew buttons on it for eyes. Years ago my Dad made a screw driver holder to help us organize our growing collection of screw drivers. We also used popsicle sticks for shims, toy buildings, plant markers in early spring gardens, stir sticks and more. Clothes pins. Coffee can and cardboard.

I also do not want her to have to take out so many loans and other things that I felt like I had to do to build my life. Growing up a meal was a starch, lots of meat, and a vegetable, and we wouldn’t do something like, have pasta with marina and Thai chicken on the side because they didn’t “go together.”

When my brother and I were growing up, our parents didn’t have much discretionary income. My mom cut coupons and sewed her own clothes and mine, as well. We lived off my salary and banked Alan’s even before we were married so that we could build our own house (literally), paying cash as we went. Alan doesn’t share that regret.
