Any investment involves risk, be it a shortsighted clothing purchase or auto financing &ndash; buy an ill-fitting garment and you&rsquo;re out the time and gas it takes to return it; buy a lemon and you&rsquo;ll have even worse financial obligations. Any time consumers make a purchase, there&rsquo;s the possibility that it will be the wrong one &ndash; a meal they won&rsquo;t like, a movie they can&rsquo;t stand, a service that won&rsquo;t meet expectation &ndash; so why all the bad press about... ]]> </description>

    You see them all the time in home design magazines &ndash; house plans with grand staircases at the back of the foyer; fireplaces in the bathrooms of lofty

It&rsquo;s also a reflection of your priorities. Do you value space and simplicity? Do you crave cosiness and intimacy?
