Its definitely harder to move once you have kids.

As a side note I know you worked or work for MAP.

But what do you do for a living?

I ask because. Although I don't care for the area. .my plant is about to finish up our mew 80million dollar textile line and will be hiring soon.

I also happen to know the head of the quality department for the company that makes most if not all the lawn furniture cushions for Lowes. Which is locates I'm greenville, sc

I also happen to know a guy who owns a car shipping company out of Raleigh, NC.

If you don't mind traveling. (Could even travel with the wife)

As a side note. The shipping deal must must pay well the owner who started it 2yrs ago. Was looking to buy a 2006 lambo last month.

This x10 if kids are in the plan.

If not, or if things change, enjoy it while you can, you can always move back if you miss it!

Well so brings up a good point, where if I wind up deciding to move back, I can just rent out my house now. That said, I will have to have a chat with the folks in due time.

Damn! That's what my friend said from the area, that most the work is manufacturing, though I have a background in engineering and sales/business. CNC actually has my interest but I know it's going to take some time off work to finish the core classes for it, the rest I have down already on paper. Personally I love traveling but would have to see how that works with the home life. I do currently work for MAP as the head of their wholesale division, so I'm well rooted and have a solid position, while enjoying what I do everyday, but I'm not picky when it comes to the right paycheck and smiles per hour. MAP isn't exactly keen on remote workers any more but maybe in time, so frankly though I'm saving money on living costs (everything there is much better value from what I can tell), it might have to be a decent jump to take my heart away from this workplace haha.

Before picking an area regardless of what state etc. Check out school ratings if you plan to have kids. Sc is not good by any means but there are a few pockets I the state that have decent ratings.


CNC - well we do have a Boeing plant near Charleston and the Bmw plant in spartanburg, I also thought I remeber hearing Mercedes has a plant they are expanding here.

And we also just got an amazon distribution center near Columbia.

And i would say we have a target distribution center in my town. But from what I heard its a bad place to work. But it is less then 10 miles from my house

Roadtrips + airplanes make that a non-issue, at least in my experience.

Other then hurricanes i loved living in Florida. But I was like 11miles from moroso and they had racing 4 times a week at night

And I love scuba diving and I was like 5 miles from the ocean and used to go every lunch break and either snorkel or scuba dive. But I also was my own boss and always set up my schedule so I had a few hours each day to do so.

There was tuner shops every where it seemed. And was always full of exotics.

Jet was the only person to visit me while I was living in west palm beach. As he was passing through when he picked up a white 1g.

Nash lived here in camden sc with me for a year. So he can also attest to how boring my county is as well as how limited jobs are here in Kershaw county.
Other then being like 3 hours or less from everything. My county sucks.

^^ Good info right there.

Personally I am on a 5 year plan to get the hell out of Minnesota and move somewhere with less winter or no winter. While I can tolerate the snow, I prefer ALL summer activities to winter ones now.
