I’m giving myself about 8 or 9 years to complete (we have a lot of work to do on the house).

The thing is: completing this is within the realm of possibility. 520 is the magic number, but what about one of those Big Four? Doyle and Wagner are out. Plank is really high - but Magie does seem within the budget. Instead of buying a hot rod when I retire, a Magie seems like a decent trade off. What do you budget for it, I guess, that is the question.
Good luck on the build! It’s been a good while since we laid out the 25k blueprint. In today’s market it’s going to cost a bit more. But still so worth it!

For a low grade Magie would estimate 6-8k for an A/1 and then on up.
