The Alabama house is really nice, along with the acreage... and I also think the perfect California house would be on huge acreage between LA and San Diego, far enough away to have some goddamn peace and quiet, but with an endless number of things to do if you choose to ever leave your mansion. |

I mean, I haven't done any real numbers, and frankly, my take home dollars would go a LONG way without a mortgage or utilities, but I'm not sure 250K would get me to car service. Especially if I'm changing anything on the property. You know my ass is going to be springing for wagyu brisket and shit long before a car service. Eliminate resource scarcity and Cali looks and feels differently. |

But yeah, even without a mortgage and property taxes, $250k isn't that extravagant. I'd only use the helipad on really special occasions. |

I'm not wowed by either location since neither are near a major metro. I don't mind being out of the hassle of big city living, but I do like living close enough to enjoy those amenities. In this round it comes down to be living in a warm place or living in a place that's subject to sub-zero temps 4-5 months a year. **** that noise. Give me HI.
