Tuesday

I couldn’t afford a 50 year mortgage. If I wait til I am in my late 20s or early 30s and by some great miracle I could afford it, I would be in my 80s. Of course I would still be working because Social Security would be long gone. Now if I do live long enough to pay it off, would I be in the Barron Trump Dynasty or the Adolph Miller one?
