I moved from Maryland to Florida ten years ago and thought I was living from free due to expenses being so much less. Of course, costs of everything has gone up, but they have everywhere.

Made the move from Seattle to Pittsburgh almost five years ago myself. Will trade all my cold and snow days to avoid the humid of the south, especially Florida.

If you need to keep busy, doing volunteer work is contributing to society. Taking a paying job that a younger person might need is just selfish.

My Opinion.

I just smile when I heard them talk.
