I wasn't going to wade in on this but since you guys are enjoying it so
much you should consider some really cheap places to live.  I'm sure
California is a lot more expensive that a little place in Tibet.  Just
think, you could put out a shingle and tell all who inquire that they
can find happiness only if they ride a trolley once a week.  

Clothes would be cheaper - all you need is a robe and sandals, and maybe
something to keep warm in the winter.  Transportation would be cheaper,
what does it cost to walk?  But is you really need it Yaks are cheap.
Food cost - you could always eat the Yak.  

Of course don't expect to make much either, there aren't many people who
will pay for the advice you're dishing out...

I would love to go on, if only I knew what I was talking about, but
there is work to do so I can continue with my expensive lifestyle....

Happy April's fools day everyone.

Bob

That's free compared to Europe.

There are plenty of cheap places to live around here, though sadly if
you
want to live near one of the carlines it's probably a bit more. I
discarded the South Hills out of hand due to the Fort Pitt Bridge
project
(which was on the drawing board when I bought). Still cheaper than
anywhere in CA I bet.

It's over now, and I didn't hear any absolute horror stories from my
friends in Beechview during the project.
