[quote=Eugene]But it is somewhat bizarre to see people mentioning Del Mar and dumpster-diving in the same thread.[/quote]
Why is it bizarre? It’s from two different points and they’re not related/responded to each other. Think about it, if you have enough money to pay off a house and still have $2M in cash to spend during your retirement, why does it matter if it’s a house in Del Mar or a house in Escondido? It probably end up being cheaper to live in a 1000 sq-ft house in Del Mar than a 4000 sq-ft house in Escondido.
