The following is largely a link to my blog about life in a tiny house. Because this issue and event deals with personal finance risks I post it here, too.

As I wrote in that post;
“Housing isn’t simply difficult to afford. It is also uncertain. Renters know this. People trying to rent can see it all as academic as they search for another room, or couch, or car. Home owners also know that houses can experience disasters, regardless of insurance. Of course one solution is to have more than one house. Few can do that, however.”
To me the message is less about tiny houses and risks, and more about housing in general and its risks – especially if you can only afford one house whether renting or owning. My situation is that I own the house but rent the land. It was the most affordable of the solutions available. It had one particular risk, which surfaced and did so with incredible timing.
Welcome to another weird chapter in my less-than-normal life.
