My f**ing roof is leaking

After an abysmal night of poker on Friday to cap of an abysmal week of poker we went to a AA league hockey game in Wheeling. The game was loads of fun. On Sunday afternoon, I went shopping with the wife and daughter, and that too was fun enough to recharge my batteries. After dinner on Sunday night, we were watching football, when I notice that the ceiling had a sizable wet spot. Upon investigating I noticed that the roof was leaking in the attic. This is why I hate owning a house. It is constant work. Many people say that a home is your largest investment. I say these people are wrong. An investment grows in value and eventually pays you back. A home costs money almost constantly. And you can't really sell it to make money for you will need to replace it. If it were truly and investment, I could sell off part of the garage for the $3,500 I will need for a new roof and the garage would grow back. As it is now, I have to find a way to get $3,500 to throw down the drain.
