ParticipantI have thought about splitting myself, but I’d be uprooting the kids again. I can take a transfer to say Atlanta, and keep the same salary, but that place doesn’t interest me. Possibly one of the Texas cities, and of course Cleveland (due to family reasons) but I don’t want to go anywhere if there is a cut in pay involved, I have too many good things going on outside of work in the two years I’ve been here.
I am not quite 40 and some day I’ll probably go to NYC, but it’s never been a priority. From Youngstown where I previously lived it was around 400 miles away. Thinking back I should have just driven there at some point, but I was too provincial. I remember being in Tokyo in early 2001 and how my co-workers could not believe I had never been to NYC. The funny thing was I flew threw Newark, and remember looking out at the twin towers thinking, I ought to come out here some day. Now I can barely afford to fly home to visit family, and where I come from, you visit family before taking vacation.
In general I hate traveling anywhere. I probably burned out when I used to be a consultant who had to get on a plane and go somewhere every week. The flight to Tokyo was looonng. I also flew to Amsterdam a couple months later, and to Glasgow, and those weren’t too bad, but it does get tiresome sitting in that smelly tube.

ParticipantAlex it just seems like you flip-flop more than a politician. Are you spending any time reading Ben Jones, or other blogs out there? With the recent Mortgage news, you cannot possibly think things are turning around soon. What about Cramer’s melt? Check Broker outpost or the Grapevine at Broker Universe, and see how those guys feel things are going.

ParticipantWhat caused you to barf on that seeing a short sale in Encinitas? I have a guy in around the corner selling a home on Playa Riviera in Cardiff for 699,000, at maybe 1040 Sq. feet. Travertine and other upgrades, but this house sits right on top of I-5.
$672 a Sq. Foot
A modest drive to east of El Camino Real:
$260 a Sq. FootDoesn’t sound right I’d better check this again.

ParticipantFor the first time my wife and I went out and looked at homes in a new development. Not out of interest to buy, but just to get out of the house. We went to SEH and toured this development. I saw a sign on the model at 624, and I overheard sales lady talking about a 60K incentive. Now I didn’t bother to ask what all the prices were, but at least I overheard something.
Also considering I am updating a thread that is over a year old, that development was sparsely populated. My wife liked the houses but said no way does she want to live that far out.
Heck there is a brand new short sale listed in Encinitas 2329 Sq. Feet for 619,000 (not that I am interested, just that I’d take this house before going way out there). MLS 071062259

ParticipantTook a drive up last night to watch Solana Beach in the Little League western regionals in San Bernadino, and saw those Martha Stewart signs on 215.
Perris was a bit scary at the place I hopped for gas around midnight. About 4-5 sketchy characters and a panhandler.
