73-year-old pays $370/month to live in a plane he bought for $100k (opens in new tab)

WIDE LOAD

I stopped reading at "I’m a nerd. I don’t cook, so it’s a minimal kitchen area".

[French nerd here. My most important room is obviously my kitchen]

I read that as $100k for the plane and $120k to decommission/dismantle and tow it to his property. So 220k total for a hair over 1k sqft. For reference a quick search says that would run you ~300k today in that town and the one property I could find listed with pricing back to the 90's indicates it probably would have been about $100k then.
