Pros And Cons Of Living Near Family
Pro: Someone to borrow from
Need a spare set of sheets for guests? Lawn chairs for an outdoor party? Bicycle? Your family has it, and they’ll lend it to you, because they know you. Between the various family members and their belongings, there is little reason to ever buy another thing.
Con: Someone who borrows from you
Of course, that’s a double-edged sword. Your family will also often borrow from you, and you’ll often find yourself wondering when you’ll get your Crockpot or beach umbrella back.
