I started working in architecture in 2002, and I've always felt it was crazy how much these houses I was working on would be worth, when they just don't cost that much to make, and certainly are not of the quality which would justify the price in my mind, but the craziest was that random shlubs working shit jobs but happened to have a house were taking out loans and getting crazy money that they could come to the architect and finance a new remodeling project in like the 100's of thousands of dollars, and they were getting top of the line windows, granite counters, spending mad money on their kitchens and bathrooms, getting brick facade work done on all four sides of the house.
