    My wife brings it up. we have about 220k equity in our house. Schools are shit here. people are the worst. weather is great but...... to commute 10 miles here takes 1/2 to one hour. Her friend just moved to south of cinci and she is a full cali girl/former model lookin check. she is bitching about the humidity right now but she is adjusting to it. They bought a house there that is equivalent of a mansion here

  • Congrats Mike!

  • I had my little GC company and made okay money after I got laid of in 2012. in October had some bad employees that resulted in a lot money lose. Had to redo a lot of things. So come November I was not bringing any money home that I should. the last 2 months I have been doing most of the work myself with some minimal help. lost some proposal contracts that were verbally givin to me. couple of signed ones. For my little company I was set to bill about 20 grand a month. 20 percent take home. Not much money. but was working on my own growning and shit went bad.

    The wife had fits about it and was bitching a storm (don't blame her, so now she can shut her trap. Its better for my family and my sanity. I aged like 5 years in a year and half. too many gray hairs. I feel a lot more at ease now.

    Thank you guys. Have been on this board and it has been great!

  • I have to start all over and I am happy with it. Be like a rising phoenix out of the ashes right? So when does fucking football start again!!!!! GO BROWNS.

  • Don't believe him. This is a good state. I've lived all over the world. You will like it here.

    No offense diehard but you are old and retired. You don't have to worry about job prospects or schools or interesting things to do.

  • I like Ohio and want to come back for work.

    Congrats as well OP

    Was that directed at me? My feelings... My feelings..

    However will I consider myself successful if the cranky, old, senile man doesn't think I am?

    I also have some experience under my belt, bub

  • Silly engineers, going to school all those years....

    Come be a roughneck like me and work your fucking tail off 80 plus hours a week, break your back, but make bank.

    All kidding aside I wish I finished school.... I would probably be in law school right now....

    But kids and bills and debt do strange things to a young man...

    The bright side? Im only 24 and have plenty of life left to change it up if I feel so inclined.

    Anyways congrats LBC Mike... And begrudgingly I congratulate all you grads and soon to be grads.... Jealousy burns deep 😎

    Nice, more engineers! I'm towards the end of my classes in Aerospace Engineering down at UC.

    Don't you know? Engineers rule the world

    When do you graduate?

    Do you work in the area too?

    Case looked nice, but I couldn't imagine going to school only like 15 minutes from my house. That just wouldn't seem like the "college experience" to me. Just my opinion though

    Well there's a few of us here in the engineering field then. I graduated from Kent State with Associates in MET in 1995, went back for a 2+2 Bachelor received in 2004.

    What's MET? Mechanical Engineering Technology?
