These falling oil prices are garbage. It's absolutely killing our economy in Louisiana and affecting our state budget. Even I'll admit our family is struggling to make ends meet and I'm considering getting a line of credit to bridge our mortgage until prices come back next year (as it helps subsidizes my financial planning business and wife's barre class business)

Seriously, it's time our government finally refuses to deal with OPEC's BS and get prices back to a respectable level!

If we can't either get the breakeven price lower or increase the price of oil, I'll be forced to leave Louisiana and bring my tax revenue with me.

I've always enjoyed old metairie but I'll sell our place and pick up and move to our vacation house in a heart beat.

With that said, anyone else have a house on Rosemary Beach? If so, how's the economy during the non-tourist season? I'm considering flipping houses.

So your one of the uppity people that have ruined Old Metairie. Really wish they'd keep the uptown refugees elsewhere.

O&G is like any other risky market. When it's good it's good, when it falls it sucks. Put money away instead of buying vacation homes.

Well, I have to say, your falling oil prices are making a whole lot of other places really rich. So ha!
