Everything said about moving out of state and actually having more money, better lifestyle really struck a chord with me. As I’ve said before, we left SD almost 5 years ago for upstate NY. I read the numbers and lower incomes for this area, but I dont SEE the same level of economic stress. We actually make more money, save more money, do more, spend more, live much better. It is the same for my friends. Most are loaded from a lifetime of stability. Even those without big incomes live fine lives, own homes, have pools and clubs they belong to, have all they need or want (and more), travel, etc. Even public school teachers can afford a life such as this… Imagine that……
the numbers dont tell the whole story (as usual).
Then I thought, what the hell do I keep coming back to pigginton.com for? I can argue politics at the Town Hall if i really care to. I can look up properties, numbers and articles myself in my search and wait for the best vacation place in SD for the summers. This RE crash thing is so slow moving – I’ll not miss anything by not checking up on the latest news every few hours as I try to do eveyrthing else I need to in a day. I dash off messages in a flash every chance I possibly can.
In short, I am totally addicted to pigginton. Not healthy. So sayonara. Hope I can resist the urge to return. Good luck to anyone else who is piggaddicted….
