At $3k a month over 30 years it's a $1 million plus. So I guess the hose has to be worth a million at payoff. What would the taxes be by then?Anything you'd want to live in starts at 400k in most markets. More in others. Mortgage on a 450K house was around 2 grand a month at 2 1/4% until rates went up, Now its more like 3 grand at 7%. Thats why the reas estate market has ground to a halt and why recruiting for jobs requiring relocation has ground to a halt. This might get better if rates go down but interest rates and hot economies are scrappily tied to inflation.
Point being for guns to be a good investment they have to go up in value over time. Inflation is killing investments.
