People in California don't have retirement accounts. All in the house.

Manhattan beach. You're right by the airport and a modest single family home will only cost you 2 mil
Only $2M? That's only about $1.5M over my budget. Maybe if I move some money around I can make the numbers work.

Not sure you remember the definition of a fanning brag.

perhaps I don't! It was more of a straight up humblebrag for sure

Kat Kid · « **Reply #230 on:** March 14, 2017, 12:52:39 PM »

Humble brag is a falsely humble/non chalant brag of something significant.

Fanning brag is a very obvious brag about something that is a humble achievement or accomplishment.

It might have been a bit of an exaggeration. My wife would have to keep working to afford that much house and the current plan is that she not keep working.

if i have this right,

slipping into the story that you were seated in 1C = humblebrag
punch line of story that you were seated near chipper freaking jones = fanningbrag

Long story.... but the Southeast is back on the table.

atlanta has some upcoming traffic infrastructure improvements which i believe are new from last go-round

Trim · « **Reply #239 on:** May 01, 2017, 03:46:22 PM »

Atlanta.

IPA4Me · « **Reply #240 on:** May 01, 2017, 05:02:28 PM »

Nashville. Charlotte. Atlanta. Savannah.

How about a small town? Kingsland GA. Thirty minutes to Jax airport. My wife taught in the school district when I was in the Navy. Camden County.

I think Atlanta is out. We're looking for something completely different than DFW and Atlanta seems very similar to me. I think we've narrowed it down to Raleigh-Duram area or near the beach in FL.

It's a bummer there aren't more cities in the south w/ NBA teams

There's quite a few... Charlotte, Atlanta, Orlando, Miami, New Orleans, Memphis..

I think the worst part of living in the south is going to be college football fans.

Only two of those teams made the playoffs and they're both already out which made me kinda forget about most of them. :-

There's no Love & Hip Hop Dallas.

pissclams · « **Reply #246 on:** May 02, 2017, 08:35:43 AM »

while it would obviously be hard to pass up an opportunity to live in the cultural center of the south, RDU is the best choice

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #247 on:** May 02, 2017, 08:48:36 AM »

Myrtle Beach or Jacksonville.

I start the new job June 1st and I have 6 months to be moved. The places I can live are a little more restrictive than I first thought. I have to live within 90 miles of a company office. Offices are in Tampa, Tallahassee, Miami, Raleigh, Charlotte, Atlanta, Virginia Beach and Richmond. We want to be moved by the time school starts in the fall. We're going to go visit Tampa in June and Raleigh after that.

mocat · « **Reply #249 on:** May 12, 2017, 08:15:58 AM »

big win for the RDU camp.

Batt BcKee, i would also look at Norfolk/hampton roads
