I just had a solar fucker stop by the house 2 days ago. I told him we're building so I don't want it on this house. Mom has money and she's moving in and her electric bill will be $100 max. I told him I researched it. These sales guys don't know what the fuck they're talking about. I was polite, but I really really wanted to tell him to fuck off. He was at least nice and not pushy.
I'm not a geezer, but with 15 years of dealing with sales people and my wife in sales, I can't stand the shit. The kid was nice though. Can't do solar at the new house either. Tress on someone else's property. Only downside of the property, shit sun in the winter. Spring through fall will be fine. Not dropping panels on the roof to maybe get 7-8 months of solar.
That's gonna be a LOT OF TOXIC WASTE in ~25 yes.

I just tell those types I'm renting, which is true but I'd probably say that even if it wasn't true.

I was nice. I get the gig. I was being honest. I'm selling the house to my mom and not putting anything on the roof at this point.
Want the place as simple as can be or I have to take care of it. She's 70 and not getting younger. I don't need her estate and she can afford setting the AC to 60ºF. Solar make no sense for this property.

I did the math of Tesla solar panels. Cost is $17.4K after tax incentives. It would cover my monthly electricity bill of $230/mo on average. Add in a powerwall will increase the cost by $8k. Without the powerwall, it’s about 15% ROI. What am I missing?
