I haven't but if anyone wants to know how to set up a single 50" tv, I'm your guy.

Damn, you got me beat. I have a 3 br 1200 ft and I think that's too big. Its even got a finished basement that I also never use. Now I do have 1.5 acres which I love for the woodsy setting and not having any close proximity to my neighbors.

Same. I have alerts set up for my checking account since they have weak fraud protection. Otherwise, if its an authorized charge with cc, I just dispute it.

Bend actually has some quality airbnb options. Living there full time is probably another story. I try to travel during the shoulder seasons to avoid the crowds and high prices unless its somewhere like Glacier when you have no choice.

Something to keep in mind if/when I come back. This is more of a drive around the state taking in all the highlights type of trip, but if Bend lives up to its reputation, I'll probably be back for an extended trip.

Water temp still comfortable mid-sept?

Got lodging all booked up. Got turo rental. Just need the airfare. Final itinerary. Got lady friend to agree to 2 more days. GM, I know its in the opposite direction you suggested, but I wouldn't expect any traffic in the evening Sat heading to the beach and then its just Sunday dealing...

Damn, also tempted, but I see its just until the end of the month and I don't move that quickly.

If you're into live music, they put on a very entertaining show. Doesn't look like they're touring this summer though :(

Those damn rolex commercials during the masters have the same effect on me. I just can't resist.

Absolutely. Its part of the date night routine with the girlfriend. Just introduced her to justified.

I take it the 33 year old he was talking to wants to make that entrepreneurial leap but being he's the sole breadwinner is worried about the risk.

I don't think he means his life is difficult. I think the difficult spot he's referring to is giving that comfortable life to pursue this other avenue that apparently leads to this long term wealth.

I'd like to know what he means by long term wealth. I think there are people that find it boring to go the route of just maxing out your 401k every year and being able to retire comfortably at 60.
