Well, pension cheques only come at the end of the month and as you know construction material is expensive these days. Have you had to buy 17 gallons of paint lately? Or 100 sheets of drywall? A mess of studding? Electrical install and panel connections? 9 friggin' doors and jambs along with the hardware to enable them to work? Bathroom fixtures? Ceiling tile? Flooring? Baseboards?

This is an expensive undertaking!! I may have to start a GoFundMe account...........or collect cans and bottles. Life is tough for old folks. We see it everyday on the news.

All that stuff is a right off, business expense. likely cost next to zero, knowing you and senior's discount, old teachers discount, builders discount, business discount etc. Knowing the Double D shyster you're getting cash back, you oldtimers have all this cased out long before even starting!!!!! lol. likely getting products free for product reviews, placing adds for people to help senior in time of need. and what with all the bingo winnings around here, you should be high livin? haha

My accountant won't let me do it as it is for our main residence. I thought if my wife hired me to do the work we could do it that way but in reality not really. I still have to sleep at night.
