Buffalo: More than just chicken wings and snow

[RJD]

Okay. Not really.

Hello, my name is RJ and I'm from the Buffalo area. I grew up in the suburban mecca of North Tonawanda, home of perennial Football powerhouse, The Lumberjacks. I just built a mini-mansion about 3 miles from the house I grew up in, just across the border in Wheafield, NY. Close enough for Mom to babysit, but not close enough for frequent pop-ins. Married with a 2-1/2 yr. old poker playing daughter, and another baby coming.

I like to play poker and I win most of the time. People like to give me money. Not sure why. It just happens.

I watch the sci-fi channel too much and I know more about the Lord of the Rings and JRR Tolkein than anyone on the planet.

How many square feet in a mini-mansion?

[RJD]

3100 sq. ft. Probably too big for a family of four, but I made mad money on my last house and the rental properties that I sold off. I also overcompensate because I grew up in the projects and was viewed as the "poor" kid in school...

Well you have about twice the square footage that I have and we are down to 2 now so maybe I live in a mini mansion as well.
Good job on the rentals, I took a beating on mine at least at the end.
