Wes,,
Just listenening to Glenn back this morning and he mentioned that St
George UT was now one of the top aeas in the US to live. A new tract
went up with homes starting at $500,000 and all were spoken for in one
week. Builders just started another tract with starting prices at
$750,000! Unless you're from San Francisco area or some of the pricier
suburbs of LA, who can afford these?

You were talking about moving a few months ago.......If I were you, I'd
stay put. You've got nice coming into the shop all the time.

I'll stop by to say hello on Thursday in Long Beach.

Ira

They have certainly been building some "big bucks" housing here as of late,
however $250K still buys a pretty decent home. We got here 5 years ago from
CA and bought a couple of homes. The one we live in is 3200 sf and cost us
$185. Granted it was a foreclosure, so we saved about 15k. Today this home
is worth about $450k.

This area has been rated one of the top retirement areas in the country. I
have a link about the area at our web site. www.allgoodcoin.com

See you Thursday.
Wes

Wes, I hope you do stay put at least until November. We have a big senior
softball tournament in St. George the second week in October, and I hope to have
time to visit your shop.

St. George doesn't have winter like Salt Lake City. It's very nice there.
It's the summer weather that I wouldn't like.

Small change. Around these parts, $500,000.00 would get you a small two or
three bedroom house on a dinky lot, or maybe a condo, and if you were
lucky,
even a garage. Trump is building a new gated community about a mile down
the
road from where my folks used to live. Those houses start around $5
million
and go upwards of $10 million. Besides Doctors, lawyers, Captains of
industry and lottery winners, I don't know who can afford houses like
that.
But lookin' at them is free. Maybe.

In this part of Texas if I was careful, $500,000 would buy me 10 houses.
More realistically, I am confident I could get 6.
We do have million dollar houses but not many.

Latest issue of the AARP magazine (yes, I am old enough to be a member)
lists best places for retirees to live, and yes, St. George UT is
there. I checked the pictures very carefully to see if there were any
coin shops or change in the streets. Found none. Therefore,
scientifically, I deduce that the pictures were all taken by Wes, from
his shop, after picking up all the pennies off the street.

I'm not a rocket scientist, but I like my reasoning powers better.

If you are 50, you can join the AARP. They have some mystical magical way of
finding out when people turn 50 and sending them an invitation letter to
join. I got such a letter shortly after I turned 50. Where they get the
names and addresses I have no idea. For ten bucks a year for the membership,
I think that's what it is, the membership can get you some pretty decent
discounts here and there for this and that. Then again, so can an AAA
membership card, but those cost way more than ten bucks a year. Then again,
I don't think the AARP will come out and change a tire or bring you a can of
gasoline if you're stupid enough to run dry.
