You left out a few ...

Like the folks who spent $100,000 for their pool and are ****ed they're only getting back 10¢-15¢ on the dollar when they sell.

& the ones that had no clue of the cost to insure, maintain & repair a pool.

& the ones who thought it sounded like a great idea after living in Montana for 40 years and then found out they hardly use the pool, except for the week the grandchildren come to visit.

In my entire life, I've never met a person who owned a home with a pool or who built a pool, who would do it a 2nd time.
