Cabin? You mean mansion with electrics, running water and so..?
westmd
Is this a humble brag?
CaffeineEnabler
When a place has 2 dining rooms, multiple bathrooms and multiple living areas, it goes beyond the term 'cabin'

How does one accumulate enough currency to purchase such an establishment?
BenchedWinger
Wish I had money.

As a fellow Minnesotan, that's not a cabin, that's a lake home
heyguysimtom
Having money seems like it would be so cool
ihopetheydontfindme
Do you allow for non family weddings?

How did your mother break her neck 3x?? Was it the stairs?!?

At what point does a Cabin stop being a Cabin and become a Mansion?
LynchMeDaddy
When it has a damn elevator.
Californiasnow
Somewhere below OP's point.
HlyAlch
when you add electric and flush toilets
Tea1earl1grey1hot
This is pretty incredible. It's made even better by having a big family to enjoy it with. Congrats.

Congrats on your money
SyrusVice
Wow that's absolutely beautiful. But the real question; how fast is the internet?
Troteus
Asking the important questions now.
DrSeuzzz
No internet. No cable :) just the outdoors!

Fell down an escalator and then two other times because it was never as strong. Over a 20 year period. She woke up paralyzed one night even.

Too much wood.
BugEyedLemur
Yeaaaaa that's not a cabin, that's a house that has cabin like characteristics. Beautiful place, tho.

As a European I imagine every house in Canada/Alaska/around Lake Michigan to be like that! I think I'm in love...
pinkcow
Do all Paris appartments have a view of the Eiffel tower ?
EvolveCT9A
But we enjoy our 70m apartments more. (cries inside)
Wesugi
Jesus where do you have apartments THAT big? (cries visibly on the outside)
pontiacgirl75
Beautiful place!! well earned Im sure.Like a 2nd cousin, he worked hard as a sanitation guy in the KW cities, and came back home to retire
pontiacgirl75
Made himself a huge house and is living good on retirement. Some say he has a fancy house, I say he has something he's always wanted

Step 1. Be rich
TypicalBuffDude
U mean super rich
samsneed
briarios3000
As an actual rich person, you couldn’t pay me to live in that tacky house.
SarahsEXHusband
As an actual rich person , I'd pay someone to piss in your hat
briarios3000
As an actual rich person, I have so many hats that you can't possibly piss in all of them

cade0982
WTF? This "cabin" is a fucking mansion! My house was more than 200k and is way smaller...fml! Obviously I Made something wrong
Phustercluck
200k is a 2 room condo
KeylessChuck
Is 200k a lot where you live?
cade0982
I live near Bremen in Germany. Since the interest rate in Europe is at 0% the prices are rising and my House worth more now as well. 1/2
cade0982
But this mansion would be about 2m eur even before the non existing interest rate.
thecoon55
200K is a lot everywhere but california, NY, and washington...
KeylessChuck
200k is a down payment on a condo here in Vancouver...
HlyAlch
and Alaska
DrSeuzzz
Step 1: work hard as heck in construction for 20+ years. My family started as farmers and teachers.
Ameatyloaf
Step 1 is still: be rich.
12rt2345g342563
That's a horseshit answer that people with money give. There are countless millions that worked just as hard. You got lucky.
FreeRickSanchezC137
What do you do now?
dachicken
Best answer I've seen to one of those statements =)
PuzzleGif
Hear that kids? Construction. Not university. Construction. I learned this the hard way, 40 years late. Get a trade.
LeadByBadExample
No. Be good at what you do, work hard and a lot, be lucky, and most importantly, be healthy!
CountCarophyllale
Yeup. I sold my motorcycle a year ago to go to a trade school in Dallas. Worth every penny.
itsallinyourmind
Eh, yes, for some. However - I made the same as an experienced teacher literally the week after I left college.
Camelspotting
Or work hard as heck at university and make more.
ohokaywhatevs
Tbh why is this even so much downvoted
DireSteyr
Because it's not necessarily true
demosthenes89
Ur gonna need to elaborate. Average income for a construction worker is around 30-60k.
demosthenes89
Unless you mean your family owns it's own business or is some kind of developer, "construction" won't pay for this.
juggernaut1
I build power lines and should clear at least 150k next year. Unions help if you want in the trades.
pinkcow
Depends where, in Canada the lowest jobs start at 30$ an hour, once you're in the union.
EvolveCT9A
30$ per hour? I'm moving to Canada ASAP
RedIronCrown
Canadian dollars tho.
Ravenbreaker
if you put 200/wk into savings over 20 years you'll have over 200k Mixed with other investments its not hard to achieve that.
Ravenbreaker
under the assumption of 60k/yr. If at 30/yr you could do 100/wk (I do that) and it'd be 104k
demosthenes89
Cabins like that cost like $10 million.
Ravenbreaker
More around 800k-1.5m
