I wouldnt be surprised if that stairway is more valuable than my entire life.

Back on Reddit the woodworking subreddit had a guy who made stairs like this for a living.

He wouldn’t give prices but he’d relate them to single family homes in value ….

I wish I was skilled enough to carve my home

Some years ago someone worked out the going rate for each chemical the average human is composed of, so adjusting arbitrarily, your life is scientifically/capitalistically worth ~£500. So I'd wager you're absolutely right lol

These are the Things that Make a Man

Iron enough to make a nail,
Lime enough to paint a wall,
Water enough to drown a dog,
Sulphur enough to stop the fleas,
Potash enough to wash a shirt,
Gold enough to buy a bean,
Silver enough to coat a pin,
Lead enough to ballast a bird,
Phosphor enough to light the town,
Poison enough to kill a cow,

Strength enough to build a home,
Time enough to hold a child,
Love enough to break a heart.

I would eat shit so hard attempting to go down these stairs.
