35 acres of nothing special in the mountains with no water is in the 150,000 range. For the area I'm looking at. Ouch!

There is 100 acres for sale right behind my house, just on the other side of a small strip of gameland. It has a nice creek running through the middle of it, an apple orchard and several cleared fields. Last I heard they had come down to $750k, original asking price was $1 mil.

It's been for sale for 10-12 years though. Either they're asking way too much or I'm missing something.

I did some online searches and some realtor searches, but nothing beats driving though the area when it comes to finding deals.

I would love to stay here. But you never know. I have a few years to decide. I can retire fairly young.

Unless I hit the lottery, I'll probably never retire. I have to work til 65 just to have 25 years in here.

And I doubt seriously that I'll stay here 25 years. I tend to get pretty restless after 5-6 years, and I'm coming up on that pretty quick.

I enjoy my job here, so it may keep me here. Or at least in this line of work, should I move elsewhere.

I can retire at 50 with 25 years here. But I will probably do a few more years because the runt will only be 15 when I am elgible. Plus thats too young to stop working and I can't live on my retirement here.

Had I stayed with the state, I could have retired at 49 with 30 years. Hindsight is 20/20

I will probably do 30 years here. That will put me at 33 years in the same type of work. Thats enough.

I'll be happy if I can work til I'm 65. Some days I doubt that I'll make it that long. Getting old sucks.
