There are lions out there. Downsize from that back-country Greenwich, CT. estate and save yourselves.

Far be it from me to tell you when you should give up the notion that staying forever in that way too large house in the Greenwich, CT. back-country is a viable option. BUT,  Lions have been seen roaming the Greenwich, CT. back woods. Now if that isn't some added incentive to reconsider your strategy, then I don't know what is.

Years ago when it was you and the six kids, the big house and yard made perfect sense. Back then you didn't have to be able to out run a hungry lion, you just had to be able to out run one of the kids. I'm just saying, if you are swimming with sharks in the water, is it not a bit more comforting when there are lots of other people swimming around you? Give the carnivorous creatures some additional dining options besides yourself. It spreads out the risk of being a crunchy surf snack. Mmmmm salty.

Now you are out there all alone tending to all those chores you used to made the kids do, if they wanted to borrow the car. The lawn, the fence, the log pile, the gardens. All that captive semi-slave labor grew up and moved away. Ingrates.

Sure, the kids will rush on over and help with the ever growing list of things that have begun to fall down around you. When they are done taking care of their own homes, yards, kids going to soccer and high pressure jobs.

What did you think was going to happen when you paid up for that Ivy League education? They've grown up and gotten all successful and "busy" on you.  You are hosed.

So there you are out back, futzing with the dandelions and crabgrass. Like a tasty antelope grazing on the veldt, unaware of the keen eyes fixed upon you. You might as well be wearing the meat suit that crazy Madonna wannabe singer Lady Gaga has.

Let us at Turning Point Estate Services, help you downsize to a more manageable living arrangement. I would hate to hear you have been snacked upon by the Greenwich Lion.
