re: How many of you are planning to live in Louisiana your entire lives? Why?

But I can think of many places I’d rather do all of those things than in BR.

Yeah, but the people I want to do all of those things with all live within 90 minutes of Baton Rouge. So, yeah, I could do all of those things in New York City, Milan, Tokyo, or San Francisco, but the people I share those experiences with, the people that make those experiences so enjoyable, won't be there.

Plus, on this board, everyone likes to talk about how there's this BIG world out there outside of Louisiana. You have ALL these choices of places to go! Yet, nearly every single time, the only other choice is Houston, and that place is just a giant Baton Rouge with more jobs and none of the benefits that south Louisiana provides to people who grew up here. Sure, technically, I COULD go anywhere, but yet every time, the only people hiring are in Houston, and that place f&%king blows.
