Thinking of moving to the country?

[Ulysses]

If you’re thinking of moving to the country, be aware of these hidden costs

The story is that it could cost the same as living in the city...

1. Gasoline and car maintenance...

2. Wells and septic systems...

3. Heating and other utility costs...

4. Insurance and fire dues...

5. Healthcare...

I suppose...

Another warning of the obvious by the forum moron

[GoCubsGo]

Paywall.

[O Really]

Nope.
It may be that this one particular person in her particular life down a rocky dirt road may have expenses higher than she had in her former life in some city. But none of the items mentioned necessarily applies universally, and none would offset the difference in cost of getting a $800,000 house with $15,000 property tax and gas $2.00/gallon higher than the "country." Of course, there are cheaper cities than in California, but across the board anywhere, real estate, rent, gas, tax, etc. are all higher enough to more than offset the cost of an occasional set of tires, a water pump or a septic clean-out.

So, well beyond Useless' comprehension level. No wonder he's impressed.

Awww. , Useless. So much for "Ignored". You fail again. Plus, Useless, you've been busted too many times for anyone to believe you're not reading my posts, anyhow. It's just your excuse for cowering. Awww.

I've often dreamed of living in the country...making big biscuits and shaving bacon right off the hairy underbelly of sow jones. The ribs and tenderloin all came a few days later. We had an ice stove and a battery oven that caught on fire and nearly burned down the whole goddamn place. After that, everybody put on suits and settled down as far as anybody could tell.

Your house must be fun.

Not sure I want to live there, but I'd definitely come hang out.

I'm sure there are some trees near the neoretreat that could be fitted with appropriate accoutrements...

I told you to use the stand that came with the ridiculous travel oven. Oh wait . . .

Wait, what! Are you insinuating someone should string me up and cheering about it?

That's a violation of forum rules, the Geneva Convention, the Marques of Queensbury Rules, good manners and civility.

I should report you to the almighty powers that be!

Oh, wait.

Oh, wait.

Plus, federal law as of today.

If we were whiners like Useless, we could contact the FBI.

I insinuated no such thing!

I was thinking of something like a nice hammock in which you could rest yourself whilst neo serenades.

You were the one to suggest that you could "hang out". Not I.

OK, well, I suppose being subjected to neo's singing might be considered harassment, but since I've never heard his voice I simply do not know. For all I know, he could give Pavarotti a nudge. Or Frank Sinatra. Name your favorite singer.

Because you're always wishing GoCubsGo gentle repose?

Why do you childishly lie when your intent was apparent to all? It's really really stupid, pussy.
