Eating out can MAKE you money.

July 11th, 2007 at 03:18 pm

My husband broke ground on a new house yesterday. We met these people eating out a month ago.
Our waitress was waiting on them and told us these people are looking for a builder.
I went over to talk to them to tell them who NOT to get. Then they came and sat with us to talk. The next day they came over to look at dh's house he was working on and asked him if he would build their house.
We already have a very big (4600 sq. ft.) house lined up and really did not want another house at the time, but they are in no hurry.
We said, we could get it dryed in and Gary could finish it next year, which was fine with them.
Plus, they are letting us pick stuff out and do the house the way we want. That makes things so much easier.
With building so slow right now, we are fortunate to have so much work to do, plus our money can sit in the bank and earn interest until we start on our next spec house.
So see, sometimes eating out can make you money!!!!!
