<Grasshopper_> well, I reckon I'll sell these expensive mithril toys for the cash $$$
<Grasshopper_> maybe they'll be worth more than the Shire?
<aosdict> I have the feeling the Shire isn't actually worth all that much
<Grasshopper_> me too, must've been a bubble in the hobbit property market
<aosdict> remember how Bilbo brought back, like, a few hundred gold pieces and was immediately the wealthiest person ever
<Grasshopper_> that's because his neighbours thought turnips were valuable
<Grasshopper_> my impression of Bag End is that it is a pretty damn nice place, Bilbo must've been pretty well off already
<Grasshopper_> he didn't actually work as far as I can tell
<aosdict> hmm, descending only 2 or 3 levels into the Dungeons of Doom and collecting all the gold could set you up for life in the shire
<Grasshopper_> So long as you are happy to live on turnips
