Participant[quote=flyer][quote=scaredyclassic][quote=flyer]We never experienced any of the negative issues being discussed in CV with regard to any age group, and really don’t know anyone who has, so maybe it’s all in the eye (or mind) of the beholder, and I really don’t see the need to make rude comments wrt any particular group of people in order to try to prove a point.
People also seem to think LJ is snooty, but my wife and I grew up there, and still have lots of family and friends there, and most of them are the best, most humble people we’ve ever known.
Imo, everyone should make the choices they feel are best for themselves and their family, and let others do the same.
People choose to live their lives in different ways in different places, and I really don’t understand why anyone would care what anyone else does if they are happy with their own lives.[/quote
Because the people around u affect u tremendously[/quote]
They do, and that’s always been a positive thing for me.[/quote]
And that’s why we care what others around us do, even if we are happy. Like if I’m cooking meth for my own use in my house, u care. Even if you’re happy.

Participant[quote=bearishgurl][quote=yuhtey]bearishgurl – please come back….
[snip ignorant commentary][/quote]
yuhtey, I’m firmly in the “boomer camp” and I don’t have time to sit on park benches staring at people. Nor do any of the boomers I know and I know plenty of them.
This thread reminds of the hundreds out-of-town posters considering transferring into SD County from OH, IN, TN and all manner of “flyover country” (even lesser-expensive parts of the east coast) on city-data.com.
They ALL seemed to have kids in school (or about to go to school) and wanted a ~3000 sf newer or new single-family home close to the beach with excellent schools for $350K. The moderator had to end up posting a “sticky” in there, in effect telling new posters not to ask stupid questions of the helpful-but-frustrated locals and be specific as to their actual new job location and actual price range because the good advice of the longtime locals trying to help them was falling on deaf ears. Many, many of these out-of-state posters were beyond delusional because they enjoyed a past vacation in SD so much and felt a “connection” to it. Some actually stated in so many words, “I was meant to live out the rest of my life in SD and will find a way. God will provide.” Most were undoubtedly bored housewives sitting at home at the computer while their kid(s) were in school.
Even though your stated price point is higher, you’re no different than these ignorant bozos. I take it from your posts that you transferred into SD County within the past 2 years with one or more kids in tow at the time and have been renting (a condo/apt)? I have a few questions for you:
1. If you knew you (and/or your spouse) preferred to live in CV when you moved here, why didn’t you buy something there at that time (instead of rent)? Prices have been inching up monthly for about 3 years now and by your own admission, you are now priced out of a SFR there … at least one which you will accept, lol.
2. If your agent has only been showing you listings in CV and you didn’t like what was on offer there, why didn’t you ask his/her advice on where you could get the house you wanted? If your agent has advised you on areas which would have what you are looking for, why haven’t you viewed his/her suggested listings?
3. Have you actually placed any offers on a home and if so, what was the result of those offers? (No addresses needed, here, but area(s) of listing(s) you placed offers on would be helpful.)
4. Do you intend to pay all cash for your residence purchase? (In many cases, this will make the difference whether your offer is accepted or countered by the seller(s) … or not.)
I’m flabbergasted that your agent keeps sending you new CV listings (as late as this morning?) and showing you “’90’s tract palaces” (which is what North County Coast or “NCC” is full of in your price range, btw) when you can’t stand them. Something is going on here that you’re not sharing with the Piggs. Either your agent is truly incompetent or you’re giving him/her different housing criteria than you’re giving us.
Please, do share, yuhtey, to help us understand your situation a bit better![/quote]
Sometimes I do look at people too long. My wife and kids usually tell me to stop. It is odd. But people are so interesting. I should speak …

Participant[quote=flu][quote=yuhtey]if i’m not jewish, can i send my kids to a private jewish school? what about catholic without being catholic?[/quote]
Of course you can. Plenty of Asian moms in Carmel valley send their kids to JCC and I forget the Jewish private school off if Carmel creek road.[/quote]
Double yes. I know some Asians who appreciate the Talmudic education only jews can provide.
What about temecula? No metal detectors. Lots of mixed families. All my middle kids friends are very very very ambitious asians…
Decent chicken Fila by the mall.

Participant[quote=flu][quote=scaredyclassic][quote=temeculaguy]As an owner of an out of warranty 5 series, my advice is stay the hell away. Mine is 10 years newer and is not my daily driver, plus I do most my own maintenance and my advice is the same. It’s similar to an aging 50 year old divorced and unemployed former trophy wife, high cost to maintain and unrealistic expectations of maintenance to value ratio.
At that price point, go American or Asian purely for the maintenance costs. If you dislike Lexus, look at Infiniti, costs less and performs better. In a totally different price range, the future Mrs. TG just got a 1 year old Cadillac ATS and I’m envious. While it’s 3 series in size and too small for my over sized body, I’m totally impressed and 5 years from now when I’m undoubtedly fixing something, I love the ease and cost of repairs. Now I’m not a fan of caddies pre-2012, their latest stuff feels underrated. A few years from now, when I finally get angry enough to part with the beemer, I’ll look at at a 1 to 2 year old caddy, but maybe that’s just because I’m getting old.[/quote]
Old guy in a Cadillac just seems so cliche it’s verging on hipster. Have u heard of normcore. Hipster young kids are dressing like suburban dad’s and wearing mom jeans ironically. Your Cadillac could be normcore, if you choose. Or it could just be an old guys car[/quote]
I’d like to be the old guy with the porsche. One day. Now that’s a cliche I can live with[/quot
e]Porsche w old guy sounds not normcore. Cliched maybe but not normcore, therefore not hipster. Need to check with my fashion xconsultant.

Well, with that logic, Asians shouldn’t be buying Japanese cars. At least the Germans apologized for their war crimes. Old Japan is still trying to deny and rewrite history as if the Nanjing massacre never happened.[/quote]
Correct. Japanese cars like jews, however.

Participant[quote=The-Shoveler][quote=flyer]Many of our relatives who have lived in the Bay Area for years can’t believe where people are willing to buy homes up there now.
It’s understandable that affordability is the driving factor, but if/when things slow down again, they might have some challenges getting rid of some of those outlier properties, and, in the meantime, I don’t think the lifestyle is really be what you might call optimum.
It’s just my opinion that life is too short not to live the life you want to live, where you want to live it. We’ve known quite a few people who have waited for “retirement,” and never made it to that point, or found their time was cut short later in life, so–to the OP–find something you like, and start enjoying it now.[/quote]
That sound all good and all but then you have a few kids and your choices start to go out the window.
Reality sucks.[/quote]
I just cannot understand the relationship between the length of a lifetime and living how you want to live. Seems like a shorter lifetime would give you less options. Aldo make you more broke, since less time to earn money. Also, kids.
We are not meant to get what we want. We are meant to fulfill our duty to G-d, nation and family.
Also yuhtey is screwed. He must submit to reality and realize that this situation is completely soulsucking, unreasonable and will eventually sick the life out of him and leave him just a husk of a man, btoke, tired and beaten.
This is your duty.

Participant[quote=harvey][quote=yuhtey][…] let’s just say i work at REI near the 52.
so i lived up-town in banker’s for awhile and loved it. but that was when i was single or with girlfriend but no kids. after becoming a parent, people with man-buns make me angry and i don’t want to be near that many weirdos/hipsters. basically all the democrat voters now cause deep rage in my soul. so those older hipper places are kind of out.[/quote]
I’m guessing you don’t really work at REI.[/quote]
U probably don’t want to buy the place next to me. The hipster radiation could prove fatal.

Uh. No. Google mother Theresa crook. She’s a fraud. Tiny percent of donations goes to her crappy squalid “hospitals” where you get your prayer care. She is evil.
Truly. Not exaggerating here for effect.
Fighting for civil rights I’d useful. Fighting for naming rights, not so much.
