Creeping

So I guess I'm a bit of a creeper. This creep-need manifests itself in different ways, but one of these is satisfied by two features in The Guardian: Snooping Around and Trading Up, Trading Down. I lovelovelove looking at these houses that I could potentially one day buy. My favourites are (of course) the castles (although it kind of makes me really sad when they split a castle up in to apartments and I think my life mission when I'm a millionaire is to buy up all these castles so they don't get ruined that way) and the little cottages/farmhouses, especially when they have thatched roofs.

I just need some way to make enough money to buy all the houses I want, because collecting houses is significantly more expensive than collecting other things, like books, pogs, cameras, pokemon cards... (all of which I have collected at one time or another in my life).
