I know people that have done it. It is completely possible. It’s dumber than dammit, as I said, but I know two people that have in ground pools right now that weren’t there this time last year. Neither cost more than 30k finished. One did it via an equity loan (again, dumb), the other via whatever company that did the pool (again, dumb).

The ones with the equity loan have a household income right at 80k total. The other hovers right around 60k.

Both have prefect credit though. Both waited and planned.

Is either pool fancy? No. Pretty damn basic, but that’s not important. What’s important is that it doesn’t require parents paying for it. We’re talking people that are middle aged, and their parents are too old to give a damn about a pool anyway.

And, if you’re going to be a dick about it, you can suck mine.
