When the housing boom peaked a couple of months ago I started looking at houses back in Winnipeg. With how much my house went up I could have bought a house back home for cash and been mortgage free. Of course the downside is I would be living in Winnipeg.
Of course I then looked at what my current job would pay in Winnipeg- $10 an hour less than what I currently make. $1600 per month or about $1100 after tax in income difference; which happens to be the exact amount of my mortgage here.
Funny part of all this; people have asked if I looked at house prices in Winnipeg; and if I had considered moving back. I explained the difference in income, and their only response was "but you'd be mortgage free."
But to answer the question in the thread; I might move to Seattle, or maybe Mexico to retire.
