That's a 3 Amigos line if you don't know....
Today on Facebook I got accused of "showing my white privlidge (sic)", because I said if you borrow more than $100,000 in student loans and I'm not calling you Doctor then you're a moron in my opinion.
They had the typical victim mentality about everyone else has it easier, things are harder now, it's not their fault, school costs more, I have a right to college ect. Let's call this what it is, absolute crap.
Look around, if you don't think the parts of life you don't like aren't a majority of your own doing, well you really are the problem. Coupled with this more modern idea that all things should be fair and equitable. They are not!
Life is pain princess, anyone who says otherwise is selling you something.

con-zoom-erism
And since I was talking about bikes in the post below and house prices, why not mention them! Just so anyone interested in helping out can get me the right thing! hahahahaha.
1. Triumph Street Triple. R or regular version. 2016 model year. A fun, quality, torquey do it all motorcycle.

2. KTM Freeride 250R. 2015 or newer model year. Light, nimble, mid power off road bike for fun trail riding.

3. Honda NC700X. The motorcycle I rode in Spain. Add a big screen, top box, grip warmers and it will be my mileage eater/commuter. This one can be new or used.

If motorcycles are for riding and for adventure I think this is a pretty dang good threesome! And they'll all be new bikes to me, so there is that element of positive to it all as well.

comparo
Per realtor.com and trulia.com
Average home price in San Diego county, $529,000. (My house here was $690,000 at purchase)
Average home price in Pulaski county, Little Rock Arkansas basically, is $176,000. (House I want there is $300,000)
With putting $40,000 down your mortgage, 30 year fixed, 3.9% is $2,312 in San Diego and $643 in San Diego.
I'm not so sure that I really can say San Diego is 4 times better than Little Rock. You could probably make me agree to twice as good, but not 4 times.......
Of just looking at my personal finances my mortgage from here to there will be about $2,700 a month cheaper. Yeah, that's saving $32,400 a year just in house payments.
Which to be honest I'll spend directly on the three motorcycles I want, so that's not really a good example..... hahaha. But it means I could pay cash for them, and that's way better than a loan for three motorcycles!
This is just a little paper and pencil exercise as I'm kinda tired of defending my choice to move to Little Rock to people in San Diego.

I feel like...
I feel like when I look at myself or others look at me the way you would fat Val Kilmer. You look at him and think to yourself, "man, you used to be awesome. what happened?"
I just feel weak, uninspired, tired, unattractive and that I've got nothing going on...
I know these feelings are temporary and possibly not justified, but I feel them none the less. Maybe when my house situation reaches some sort of equilibrium I'll feel better....
I'd like to train, to exercise, to recreate, to work, to load, to feel healthy and to finish packing.

I do not like...
... this house. All it does lately is frustrate me and cost money. Lots of money. I'll have spent over ten grand just to sell the house. And it's not like I'm walking away with enough equity to buy a house outright in AR. I'd be surprised if the check was greater than 10 grand to me when the moving truck pulls away from SD for a final goodbye.
Everything seems to be an issue and when exposed shows another one. Why not just tear the whole damn house down for goodness sake...
