People might be stunned at how much a 2 story lakehouse in Florida is worth.

A quality guard dog, professional training, (don't try to DYI a guard dog,
you will get bit, so avoid the doctor bills), food, vet bills, dealing with
all the crap, a quality handgun, training, permit, ammunition, trigger lock,
etc. You may be just as stunned at that ticket. But wait! Burglar poisons
dog, steals gun, kills someone, legal fees defending yourself for not
securing gun. Guilty or not, you will still be invited to the picnic. Your
better off saving some money at Geigo.
