Basic Tools

[Conndog]

Hi, been a homeowner for years but have just a few scattered tools- a hammer, some screwdrivers- think I have a basic cordless drill but can’t find it & think I’ll get a new one. I’d like to buy a set of basic tools that a homeowner should have for both house and yard maintenance. What would be a good starting list? Off top of my head, I’d like to get: cordless drill, chainsaw, hand saw- and where is good place to buy? Budget is kind of limited- thanks!

I never said it was the safest, but it's certainly not a hobby. In combination with my other investments, I'm diversified and my daughter is more than set whether I died tomorrow or in 40 years.

My children will also be inheriting a diversified portfolio ... but (hopefully) it won’t include residential real estate directly owned. When I die, they won’t be burdened by the least liquid asset. Homes, even when rented, are where the heart is.

Homeownership is a lifestyle choice.

My apologies to the OP for derailing their thread asking about tools. Obviously, I am a tool.

People with too many tools scare the hell out of me.

Is it possible to have too many tools?
