Excavation ain't cheap. Would it be that much cheaper than building a 3rd floor or just adding square footage to the existing floor plan?
Just seems there are easier ways to add square footage than adding a second floor underground.
I suppose it would really need a cost analysis.
All I know is that raw land is hyper-inflated in price, therefore developers/builders are putting the biggest sized homes on the smallest sized lots possible. When someone buys a house they pay per sqf of living area, however, the land cost is also in that price.
I need to identify a solution to the dying need for more sqf on the same sized plot of land.

If executed correctly, I think this could work out. The main problem is that it's limited to used books. You would need to sell new books too to keep up with the other bookstores, but at least you got the used book game on lock...Originally Posted by Brandon3000

Problem is that there are already a ton of used books stores out there, plus you got libraries and digital downloads all taking away busy from you.Originally Posted by JayJunkie

i would love to see an in depth documentary on the process of getting the ball rolling with an idea or invention. From the moment it popped into their head up until they got their first royalty check. I've had tons of ideas but don't know what to do with them. Even if I thought of something right now, I would be clueless as where to start. Some items take off like crazy and I never expect it, the snuggy for one. There's NO way that those were the first blankets with sleeves. It's basically a pullover robe.
I was watching the forbes list the other day about people that got rich off of certain inventions. One was the guy who invented the jelly bracelets that are shaped like random objects. Who knew son would eat good off of that.

Anybody with a half-decent idea that is worthy of Venture Capital or Angel Investor funding is not posting it on NT
.
That being said, I'm not posting my ideas on NT.
