My colleague makes mid 6 figures in the bay area and just scrounged enough money together to buy a house from the 1950s with asbestos.

Did they pay premium for asbestos?

Yea, 10 years of his life.

Certainly a steep price to pay.

I recall that some states were happy to deice roads next to schools with radioactive brine, which might come back now with EPA being dismantled.
