Can you still buy a home for $71k? Yes, but it might need a little work.

Sheila Consaul, 65, paid $71,000 to the US General Services Administration for an abandoned 1925 lighthouse on Lake Erie in Ohio. She then spent another $300,000 turning it into a summer home.

    Carrying gasoline and supplies out to the lighthouse sucks. What she needs is a little red wagon with big balloon tires that will roll over sand. Then when the powers that be get used to the wagon, hide a small battery and electric motors in the wheels with a switch in the handle. Still has to look like it’s being pulled but the battery only has to last a half mile or so. When the going gets tough, the tough get sneaky.
