The State is broke and broken, that is the main reason to look around and Jerry Brown is not going to fix the State any more than Arnold did.

Participant[quote=walterwhite]Ok I’m over my fear of homeownership but I will never ever get over my fear of retirement. I’ve thought long and hard about it and decided almost no one but especially me can ever retire. I will always work. It’s much more relaxing than looking at spreadsheets plugging in numbers and wondering what would have to happen to run out of money. I firmly believe in work until death or very close to death. My wife worked way into her pregnancies which is different but similar. Retirement is a very bad and dangerous concept like getting rich in real estate. It is so risky I would never relax also I am certain it’s bad for your health.
That said I’m sure you could do it. Buy a cheap house in temecula pay cash get the tightwad gazette the complete edition online send your kids to community college ditch the cars and get bikes drink cheap beer do yoga actually fuck it maybe I’ll do that…[/quote]
Have we met in another life??
Well, scaredy, since your more “regular” clients tend to return to you on occasion thru that same “revolving door” we know and love, there may indeed come a time when you finally wish to “get off the treadmill and retire.” And this is coming from someone who also worked F/T clear up to the birth of her children and then took the prescribed maternity leave that my saved up sick/vacation time allowed and the law provided for my job to be held open for me (6-11 wks).
Just change “cheap beer” to “cheap wine” AND “cheap mixers” to go with (I know, I know, not your preference, but they ARE .99 for the 2-litre size, lol). Then change “ditch the cars” to “drive one very old car into the ground,” and you almost have me down to a “T” here. I even at one time came pretty close to mastering all 27 positions of Bikram Yoga!! Not sure what the “Tightwad Gazette” is, but heck, maybe I’ll look into subscribing! Actually, my quality of life is pretty good right now and I’m not exactly (officially) even “retired!” ;=]
Ok, so my house was/is neither cheap nor is it in Temecula or quite paid for yet but I STILL feel like I will be able to retire in a few years. And my last kid will do 2 years community college and 2-3 years University after that, if they wish to continue. And life will go on . . .

ParticipantSorry, but I have to draw the line. Life is too short for bad beer. San Diego has many wonderful microbrews to slurp down. Save your pennies someplace else in the budget. Not on beer.
