In 1977, if my memory is correct, I bought my second new house in the
Washington, D.C., area, for $85,000. I had purchased the first in 1972 for
around $25,000. Brand new single family house, too. Those were the days.

I sold that $85,000 house four years later for $175,000, and built a
custom $250,000 house which recently resold for $1.4 million. But I didn't
own it when it did. Oh well.

This is classic Harry. When caught in a lie, give more and more detail in
an effort to bolster a feeble position. Heck, can you imagine keeping up
with the resale value of a house you sold 25 yrs ago.
