I was tempted to roll down the window and ask “How’s business?”
He did wave though when he saw the camera.
It turns out that he has a beef with Joe Howell, Attorney, and lays out his case at that website.

I would seriously consider a modular home for my next one–there are some nice mid-century modern designs available. But I have to say, that one looks like a half dozen trailer-park specials stacked on top of each other. I can’t see that working out for that guy long-term.

Bit off topic- I bet this guys house got foreclosed. Cash out refi got him a nice car though
Or he was about to redo the floor anyway, and figured might as well have a little fun.
As for the lady not accepting the million dollar offer for sentimental reasons, she’s gonna be living on her boats pretty soon!

Jim- That was a Honda Helix, a great little 250cc scooter. I took mine on a 3 day 700 mile tour from my home in Montana into Idaho at the start of the week. I’m an old Carlsbad guy, class of 1967, who gave up on CA about 10 years ago.
How do you like Montana and Idaho, compared to Carlsbad? How many ex-Californians to you see there?
Would you recommend it as a destination for others looking to leave San Diego? (besides the Chargers)

Jim- My wife and I are native Californians and you couldn’t pry us out of here for anything. I sold my mom’s house on El Camino CC 3 years ago when she passed. We thought about keeping it as a getaway but the sheer number of people drove us off. If I want freeway traffic I have to go to Seattle. For that matter if I want a freeway it’s 100 miles away.
I’m near Kalispell and the weather isn’t too bad by Montana standards. We usually have 3 or 4 two to three day stretches of -20 or so but it is always clear and sunny on those days. Most winter days are in single digits to mid-teens but when you have the clothes, cars etc it is very doable. Spring, Summer and Fall are gorgeous.
Housing is less but so are wages, don’t come here expecting to make much money unless you buy an established business. In the boom years there were quite a few Californians buying second houses up here but that has slacked off a lot.
Bottom line, if you are thinking of moving here come visit in the summer but also come for a week or so in January or February.

What one Californian thinks of the state. http://www.erica.biz/2011/california-im-leaving-you/
I got one of those letters regarding out of state purchasing. I filled out the forms for four years of reporting and notified the state I owed no money. My understanding the state received only 9% of their “projected” revenue from the program. BIG waste of money.

She was successful with the elder abuse lawsuit on the first mortgage and then took money from another lender and is filing elder abuse again? That 2nd lender is an idiot and that woman (and her mom) should go to jail.
Strange days!

14 lawyers? Did she pay them too or was that elcer abuse?
How much confidence does it give potential clients to see a malpractice attorney that drives a Vespa?
