re: Would you rather have a mountain house or beach house/condo?

I still own my home on the side of Cheyenne Mountain and plan to spend my summers there when I retire in 2-years since the snow is relentless in the winter at times. And F**k that B, I'm giving up a lot to get that home in the divorce because I love the home and the view.

I miss the beach, but the redneck tourists whenever I go is so unappealing.

My vote is both, but you have to find the right spot for each. Play your cards right when you are young so you can have the best of both worlds later in life.
