I often want to post about a particular problem I'm wrestling with, but I don't want to start a new thread. So I thought I'd start a new thread where you can post your problem (small or huge) and get advice from obviously the best problem solvers in the world!
So here's my current dilemma...
My in-laws live about 2 hours away and would like to move closer to us. That's great - I get along with them well and it would be wonderful to have them around for the kids. My MIL has this idea that we could pool our resources and buy a large house and piece of land in a very desirable neighborhood. The school district is great, the land is beautiful, but it would mean we would be living very, VERY close to my in-laws. Not to mention the legal issues of sharing the purchase of property, which I'm not even sure how we would handle. Could this work? Or is it just asking for trouble?
