Stockton just emerged from bankruptcy. And they didn’t really fix their structural debt in so doing. Plus it’s a Mexican Gang paradise. One of our former neighbors moved there from the East Bay twenty years ago to go into “farming.” They bought 60 acres, the husband died of a heart attack driving an 18 wheeler, trying to make ends meet and service his debt. The “farm” was “stolen” by a neighbor, and now the wife is trying to stay afloat in government-subsidized housing. Oh, and the husband was a forcably retired PanAm captain.
Good Lord!!
There’s a country song in there somewhere :(
Unless you're born to it, that is almost always a mistake. Like buying a boat.
