I know this, but it will cost more money than I have at the moment to fix properly.

I did basements with my father on Saturdays for 10 or so years....Chicago winters w/o heat working in the basements suck. Only the framing tho...Mexicans are for drywall and taping. lol

Looks sweet dude.

my neighbor had 6 guys come in and completely drywall and mud his entire basement in one day. It was amazing how fast those guys worked. A couple of guys are coming today to sand and finish.

My basement has a stream running through it

I wish I could do that.

Forget finishing it. Landscaping; that's the ticket. Make a real "man cave" out of it.

Its possible. We just got done putting up sheetrock in ours, waiting to do ceiling and floors. Two years ago, every corner was wet and moldy. I made extra money over one summer by acid washing the walls to kill the mold, and then slapped down more than 30 tubs of super thoroseal. That shit is a miracle. It has completely changed how warm and dry the basement is.
