[quote=bearishgurl]Jazzman, I’m sure you’re aware that you’re going to have to use those “devalued (US) dollars” to buy your retirement home in France!
Maybe someday I’ll visit :=][/quote]
There we go with assumptions again. The purchase will be funded with mostly euros. Even if it weren’t the price differential still makes it attractive all things considered.
You really should visit, not because I want to prove my point, but because it will open your eyes to a world beyond San Diego. There aren’t huge cultural differences, but the subtle shifts in emphasis are rewarding to explore. You can then come back and write long essays, about how Jazzman was maybe onto something 🙂
