I’m sure your article and downright honesty has helped people in a similar position. Living in America most of the time, it is a country where people expect to have their dream home before thirty years of age! I do have my dream home, bought it at seventy. Yes, I had other homes, but my dream home was on a bluff with nothing but coastline and ocean views, a horse paddock and barn, and an array of animals to blame for my poverty! It happens, Christine. It takes time, and sometimes the willingness to keep hold of the dream. Do not let it get away.
