Isn't that the truth. I mean, let's just say you get back dollar for dollar what it cost to install (you won't, but let's just assume that). And let's assume your maintenance, electricity, insurance, supplies add on averages out to about $18,000 a year (which is not unlikely, maybe a little higher than what some people would pay, but I know around here it's at least that).
Now let's say you use your pool without fail, 3x per week for 26 weeks (nobody, and I mean nobody uses their pool that much).
That's $230.77/use.
Let's say you do everything yourself and your pool costs are only $12,000 per annum.
That's still $153.85/use.
You'd have to basically use your pool every day. Have your kids in there multiple times per day, always be in the spa, etc. to make it come out anywhere near worthwhile.
Outdoor swimming pools are nothing more than throwing money away on a hole in a ground and, in the southeastern United States, the outdoor swimming pool is an unusable oversized bath.

These numbers are complete and utter bullshit. I have a large pool and it's well under $100/month.
Electricity: up to $100 only if you have a single speed pump from 1974. As long as you have a variable speed pump, it's about $30/month.
Chemicals: salt system will last 5 years (warranted for 7 but more realistically will last 5 before needing cell replacement). $25/month
maintenance: about 30 minutes/week, mostly done while cooling off in the pool to begin with.
insurance: can't be adding more than $200/yr to my homeowners insurance
Conclusion: as always disco fries is a faggot fraud

Acknowledging that you're flaming, and admitting that I don't have a ton of experience operating pools, if my memory serves me correctly, when I rented the house in Scottsdale a few summers ago and it was like 105° out, the pool never got above like 80° or something and was always cold AF to get into.
Is it really that different in the humid Southeast?

My HOA has a private pool and it’s 180. Kids play with other kids they know. Water is usually 77-82 degrees. I see other neighbors I know there all the time and can have a beer with them.
Some of the neighbors/moms are pretty attractive and wear small swimsuits. They are likely at least mildly repulsed by my unmaintained thick back hair.

this is all tard trolling from xo's resident head tard in charge
but i haven't seen any comments about evaporation yet. even if pools did get up to bathtub temps (which they don't) being partially submerged and getting out is very pleasant even in the hottest of weather because of the effects of evaporative cooling when wet.

I'm filling up a 31x16' above ground prole pool right now. It's 13,000 gallons. It's taken me the better part of a month to get an area prepped for it. My yard is not level where I was looking to place it. I had to rent a bobcat and I had about 15 yards of sand dropped off. I built the base with posts built in to make a fence around the pool to protect it and hide how ugly it is. Eventually I'm putting a big deck off the back with a view of Puget Sound.
I have a ton of pictures of I ever get adventurous I'll post them.

This thread really hit home for me yesterday. I went to a friend's pool party in northwestern NJ. Their yard was surrounded by large trees and hills in the distance the water was brisk and refreshing. That rush of the cold water is essential to the enjoyment of a pool.
Compare that to soaking in water that's just as hot and wet as the dense 97 degree air surrounded by flat terrain and gross alligator infested waterways.

So here I am in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. It's a scorching hot 90 degree day and of course my friend, who I stayed with for the day, insisted that we go to his community pool.
I was skeptical for all the reasons Ive stated ITT but nevertheless politely acquiesced.
My friend was excited for us to take a dip and even said "dude, it's like bath water" on our walk toward the pool as though this were a good thing.
Sure enough, my friend was right. There was no exhilaration or rush as my skin was met with brisk water. I just felt wet. Wet and hot. Not refreshed or rejuvenated. And when I got out, I stayed damp for hours.
