So i got a cabot

Why you hold it so funny?

It’s like watching Keith Richards holding a glass of warm milk.

If you have a cabin for under 5k I will buy it tomorrow

Not in the Northeast though

Oh, not TODAY. . . . . well, maybe.

Let's say you are on leased paper land. (So no out of pocket cost for the land.)

Let's say you know the paper guys. There are trees they remove that aren't paper-worthy. Hard woods and such.

Let's say you rent a portable saw mill.

If you scrounged for other parts - yep, you could make a $5K cabin in deepest-darkest Maine.

Would I stay there? Hell no. I want heat and AC and working window screens and running water and lectrissity. But could someone MAKE a $5K cabin in 2024? If they were resourceful.
