go for the chateau, have the relator buy you a hassenblad to close the deal! i loved in the article that they were minutes from a walmart. as if anyone who could afford that chateau would be caught dead in a walmart.

Get the chateau, invite me down and I will let you use all my gear! I will even carry it around.

Why don't you just get Michael Jordan's estate. It's for sale for a mere $29mil.
A drop in the bucket! I'll come and shoot it for you.

Forget the camera, the Chateau will give you a place to keep the gear you already have protected from the weather while you hire Jerryc41 to go take pictures of the world for you!

Yeah, go for the camera. A lot of cameras....how many members does this forum have? You'd have money left over and all of us would love you forever.

In Texas you can often see Mercedes and Lexuses in the Walmart and Sam's Club parking lots. Maybe they are investors checking on the investment (not).

Buy the chateau, rent out rooms to earn enough to buy the camera!

Go for the chateau. You can always hire a UHH member to take your photos for you.

I bought a new house and a camera. Just count your pennies and you can do both.

Best go with the camera, Texas getting to crowded now also you would have to learn a new language.

Get the Chateau, quick, before someone grabs it up! Make a bed & breakfast out of it. Rent the rooms only to people with great cameras and make them agree to lend them to you during their stay. You can use different cameras every day and we can all come and stay and use the cameras you are not using. Shoot, that was easy!

Turn it into a red light house and buy all the camera's you want.
