So I’m cozy as fuck in Texas. Smoken wife who loves college football, 4br/3ba on 1/3 acre, I spend 5.5% of my salary on my mortgage. ball sweat is real, but I’d rather that than wet balls from rain.

Hey, it's a perfectly OK to bitch about property taxes assessed values here. Just remember you're at Bushwood, Sir, and not some dive bar full of drunken sailors on the Tacoma waterfront.PurpleThrobber said:
Subjective property taxes are bullshit. Oppressive on old people. "Assessed" value. Blow job....blow job...blow job (Animal House reference).YellowSnow said:
I can see the merits in higher property taxes and lowering them else where. In OR it's like 1% of assessed value, but the assessed value can only be raised like 1 or 2% per year from the original home price . So our current assessed value is like half the current fair market value. What I don't have going for me is the 9% income tax. Fuck.HoustonHusky said:
3+% of appraised value in many parts (where you’d want to live) with some homestead deductions and such. It’s part of what keeps house prices down overall so it has its pluses and minuses...as conservative as I am I think it’s a great way to tax people. To many ways to hide income...much harder to hide how you live.creepycoug said:
Is the property tax fairly big in Texas? I've always been told that's the other side of the value proposition.HoustonHusky said:Houston school districts blow...you’ll put them in private if you live there (lots of good ones). Burb school district are really good...Friendswood, Katy, and Pearland all have very good schools...think Kingwood and Woodlands do too but not familiar with them.
Houses are cheap...in the burbs for $500k-$600k you can get a 4,500 ft2 house on a lake with a really nice pool...for $400k you can get a 3,000 ft2 house with a pool easy. Move inside 610 and that goes way, way up.
Taxes are actually progressive here...main tax is real estate on your house so you have to keep that in mind as well. And if the house didn’t flood in the last two events unlikely it ever will. Main problem is just the mass amount of building without building out the drainage system with it...that’s happening now.
Take that to the Tug (TTTTT), I know.

I'd like to take this opportunity to remind creep that he owes me for 2 Apple Cup bets, and having Yella and me down to the Key West property for a little snook and tarpon fishing would satisfy the aforementioned bets. Write that into your algorithm.creepycoug said:
That right there is the goal. Pray Creepy gets the property in the Keys from Pops and I'll have a Finance Board rally down there in January just to drive the point home to everyone.PurpleThrobber said:
Winter in the deep South, summer in the Pacific Northwest.1to392831weretaken said:Since I work for an oil company whose U.S. base is Houston, I have a lot of coworkers who have swapped between that area and this in both directions. Everyone I know who's sold their place in Anacortes/Bellingham/etc. and moved to Houston ends up showing me pictures of their gross gigantic brick mansion with pool in Houston with cash left over to buy a boat. They pay the same there, too.
What's funny is that the people who grew up in the south and move here ALWAYS want to find their way back to the south. A coworker from Louisiana ended up transferring back. Another one from Louisiana is looking to do the same. Ditto two from Texas. On the other hand, I can think of only one who went from this area to Texas and didn't either find their way back at the first chance or wants to ASAP.
Seems there's a certain lifestyle (climate, outdoor activities, scenery, attitude) that people get used to, and it's hard to change.
It's what people of a certain, shall we say, affluence are able to do.
Note that we? will be watching post counts and taking a daily average of Tug vs. Finance posts. You'll want to be on the right side of our algorithm to get an invite.
Tarpon is on my list. So is snook. Hook us up.

So I’m cozy as fuck in Texas. Smoken wife who loves college football, 4br/3ba on 1/3 acre, I spend 5.5% of my salary on my mortgage. ball sweat is real, but I’d rather that than wet balls from rain.
@LoneStarDawg - what's the Corpus Christi area like?
And does it get way too banjo-music like on S. Padre Island or Port Isabel?
I needs me some cool breeze and bud, mon.

The gulf in general is underwhelming, it’s a sweaty version of the Oregon coast.
Banjo music? This isn’t the ozarks, you’re not going to get ass raped -
I’m pretty hot. It’s always a threat.LoneStarDawg said:

This is the kind of insider information you don’t get from those fags over on the tug -
I think the concerns are unwarranted. The rise of remote communication makes living pretty much anywhere far more feasible. So I think you'll see a massive rise in the quality of live in midsize cities and then of course a fall because they will also get expensive.
Then onto the next one. -
Nothing better than showing up for a meeting with your jacket soaked through and red faced.PurpleThrobber said:
The humidity is what gets me. Anywhere. I don't mind humidity if I'm in flip flops and swimming trunks. But goddamned, I hate the sweat running down my back while wearing a button down/sport coat (fuck ties) when I have to suit up for bidness. Air conditioning is fine once you're settled inside but the Throbber just doesn't like to glisten.RaceBannon said:@dflea is right about the midwest you know.
Weather power rankings show the Northwest behind California and ahead of everyone else
Rain never bothered me until it bothered my wife
Even in SoCal, it's so much more humid than the Inland Northwest. If it weren't for this goddamned snow, it would be perfect here. No bugs, no poisonous reptiles, no humidity, lots of Trump flags....oops, TTTTT, I know.
As a sales rep in az it really wasn't that bad. Car straight to ice cold ac. But when I was a sales rep in maryland I was like holy God during the summer. -
Grouper, Yellowtail and Bonefish too brother. You'd love them all. Trust me.dflea said:

I'm in Miami right now. Hottest chicks anywhere in America, at least while they are young. Also, if I don't get Covid or the flu it will be a minor miracle. EVERYTHING is open, swarms of people everywhere, and NOBODY is masked. It's full tilt boogie in Florida right now. Went to a neat outdoor Brazilian steakhouse last night in this alleyway, and it was PACKED. Wall to wall superspreader event. I was on texting my lawyer late last night making sure my will was in order.

To be fair, I didn't mention watches at all. I mentioned Covid (Tug), and hot latinas ( @creepycoug ) so this post was really a tweener but since I have abandoned the Tug Creepy's bored gets my loves.YellowSnow said:

edit: Thought about creeping and taking pics of the amazing hot Cuban babe who served me dinner, but then realized I was in the company of rich people, and not degenrates, and they might frown on me getting a dinner table boner taking pics of hot cubano ass. -
