I am lucky, and now fully own the house I live in, have a woodburning stove and about 10 years worth of trees should worse come to worse. It hurt a lot losing a house in the US that was around 3/4 paid for, so close to realizing the great american dream, we were gonna sell the house and split the money, would have put around 300 grand in my pocket for college and business starting money. 5 years of busting our ass down the drain, I am young, I can bounce back. If only we had started 3 years sooner, we woulda been sold before the bubble popped lol. Timing can be a bitch
