Some of you full-timers in all likelihood couldn't afford the S&B house you sold to go full-timing. Not a putdown, just the way it is.
You may be incorect on this one.... a successful full-timer goes into it with little or no debt.
You both may be incorrect. Having debit doesn't mean either the lack of sufficient funds or being unable to get a S&B later. Could be a way to maximize tax defered investments, etc.
Second incorrect assumption is that we will all return to a S&B - wrong!
I have never been able to figure out why people who dislike the idea of fulltiming post in the section.

I think maybe I wasn't clear in my post and I was misunderstood. In the event a Fulltimer wants to go back to a S&B house, are they allocationg the appreciation that will/has taken place? For example-many parts of the U.S. have seen a 12%plus appreciation in real estate prices in the last 12 months or so. That was my point. Could you afford the house you sold?
