Dream Residence

[greatgig13]

Let’s get out of this coronavirus funk and think positive. Where do you want to be either in the near future or retirement? What’s your dream location to live?

Me, I’m 53 and would love retire by 60. Mountains and more temperate weather. Asheville, Eastern Tennessee, Washington State are a few I’m eyeing. Illinois will not be where I die if the virus doesn’t get me first.

Dream residence, Carmel California. Reality retirement.... Southern Illinois. Lol

Somewhere on the west side of the street of Gulf Blvd. between Pass-A-Grille and North Reddington Beach.

 

[LakeCtyNewt]

Carolina coast or Florida panhandle - reality? Maybe

I have my retirement home in a mountain community in California. I am 59 and retirement is getting closer.

You would definitely have to use your Edgy user ID as your Palm Reader stage name to complete the entire picture.

A friend’s office is on the 300 block of Washington ... meaning three blocks east of the pier. He lives one block south of the pier, his home located on the second row facing the water.

Fish tacos at the Whaler on the upper patio deck is a special effing day!

That said, I like my white sand, warm-water Gulf much more than the harsh and cold Pacific.

Florbama coast, eastern WV, mountainous but close to large eastern cities. Mountain regions of Mexico 50-80 degrees year round can live like a king

Love Mexico but no good health care. Especially for a retirement age. I crossed it off my list because of the poor health care and to far from friends and family.

Based solely on where I've been so far (which isn't much unfortunately), I'd choose Hawaii just off the beach or San Diego.

I would choose San Diego. Hawaii is on a rock and it gets very small after being there a year or two.

Santa Monica. I could move into Whitey Bulger's rent-controlled apartment.

I love San Diego. That would be number one if it weren’t so damn expensive.

My brother in law just bought a 1700 square foot ranch out there for 700k. That same house, in the best part of Oak Lawn would be 150k.

And $700k in San Diego is cheap.

I didn't realize the answer had to be realistic

I’ll settle between dream and realism. Hopefully that means Illinois is out of the picture.

No just agreeing. It is very expensive there but the weather is perfect year-round plus you have the beach.

I'm going to Newport Beach and marry a rich widow.

Let me know if she has a sister

 

[LTHSALUM76]

I'm going to Newport Beach and marry a rich widow.

Isn't it funny, when a woman says she wants to marry a millionaire, men say she's a gold digger. But when a man says he wants to marry a rich widow, we say, "good for you!!" LOL!

 

[LTHSALUM76]

I don't get this. We are talking about a dream residence and no one is mentioning Illinois? Why not?

 

[anon_4vszfu35bv677]

Already there....

Well, Indiana is starting the opening up of more businesses tomorrow. At least those people can get a damned haircut.

If I have to wait till June, the length of my hair is going to rival my high school length.

I had my last haircut toward the end of January.

Wahl Clippers, that's what you need.

I've used clippers for at least 15 years. No haircuts and no need for shampoos either, Ivory Soap head to toe.

 

[SiuCubFan8]

I've embraced my shaggy look.

If you can find them...

No way in hell am I going to go around looking like Curley of The Three Stooges!

Gotta tell ya, the Moe and Larry look isn’t much better.

LMAO You don't have to go all the way to clipper length. You can use one of the attachments. I use the No.1 attach, that's pretty short almost clipper length.

It can make you look Bad-ass if you wear the right sunglasses.

I’ve used my clippers to trim at the ears and sides but it’s long on top. What would be my bangs are five inches long - brushing straight back now. The usually trimmed back now has an inch overlay.

I decided to grow this out - and I’m serious about going back to a mullet look. By retirement, I plan to have the old man of the sea look - a salty dog with a medium sized sail boat and jet ski as my primary daily transportation modes.

True. But I prefer hair to little or no hair. I'd rather it be this long than the Curley look or, God forbid, bald. I am sure I just unleashed the "bald police" now!

I guess what I was saying is that it's ridiculous that barber shops aren't open. Utterly ridiculous.
