No one. I hate to break it to you but you'll end up stuck in your McMansion till both of you rot.  :lol: [/quote]

My neighbors are in their 70s and live alone in a 4100 SF house, 5 beds and 3.5 baths. They are miserable, hate all the kids in the neighborhood, and refuse to move. One day, someone will find them mummified in one of their zillion closets. [/quote]
Why would you wish property values in your own neighborhood to be depressed?  That’s dumb.[/quote]

No, I wish they'd move to the Villages and let a young family with kids move in the neighborhood, instead of hording resources. [/quote]

The people with kids are ones hoarding large homes. I say that as the old folks in 70s and 80s actually had 3-6 kids in that home at one point in that large homes. I have couples on my block. Actually all four families with younger kids who only have two kids. One neighbor 14, 12, other twins who are 8 and other 17 and 19. They all have six to seven bedroom homes. The old folks they bought them off all had around four kids.

Homes get bigger and family size gets smaller. [/quote]
