"Today we're gonna make an entire dream house for only $0.17. So to start with, let's go outside and see what we can find just laying around."

"Alright so we found a couple old glass bottles that can be washed out and made into a rustic display piece, and if you follow me over here you'll never guess what I found. That's right, its 147 acres of forested land with a 6 bedroom, 2.5 floor cabin and small pond, all with blank ownership forms! And with just a couple million graciously donated by my parents, we have all we need!"

filler for ad revenue

" Anyway thanks for watching, this episode was sponsored by that game company you hate and can never escape ads for! "

2.5 floors? Is that how they describe lofts or something?

I live in a hilly area; here a 1.5 floor dwelling is built into a hillside and basically has two floors on one end and one floor on the other end.
