I would spend it.  Take two or three really extravagant trips.  You can't take it with you.

That goes beyond juvenile.  It's plain loco!

Low Income doesn't necessarily mean ghetto and welfare moms.  You can be a a single mother with three kids making up to $77,000 and still qualify for subsidized housing.  Or be married with two kids and one parent stays home. Anyway you should probably sell your house and move before it's too...

I agree that West L.A. is horrible and Irvine is on its way to becoming another Los Angeles congestion wise but without the cultural benefits of a big city.  Give it another five years.  You're not going to be able to leave your house if you don't want to sit in your car for a half hour to drive...

The quality of life in Irvine was lowered when the Irvine Company transformed the agricultural fields into tiny crammed together crackerjack boxes making traffic a nightmare.

http://www.ocregister.com/articles/schwartz-358409-hoa-douglas.html This article got me to thinking.  What actually happens if you paint your house the wrong color and refuse to change it or don't bother to do repairs that are required or violate any of the other hundreds of rules of your HOA?

I like this statement from the article: Similarly, ethnically mixed neighborhoods in Southern California today are more likely to have higher property values than homogenous neighborhoods and then compare it to this map:http://www.ocregister.com/articles/county-291818-white-percent.html?data=...

You have to be kidding if you think that Latinos lowered property prices in California.  The housing boom must have been a result of all of the Chinese paying $600,000 for houses in Santa Ana like thishttp://www.redfin.com/CA/Santa-Ana/918-S-Garnsey-St-92701/home/3070046

I love those one story houses with big yards.

One of the reasons why I prefer the older home is that I wouldn't have to see other homes when I look out the window.  Honestly, when driving down the street I don't pay much attention to what the other houses look like.  I certainly wouldn't care what color a house across the street was while I...

I would pick the older single story home without question.  Just look at those windows next of your next door neighbor in the condo.  That's awful.

I just chose the top five places I would want to live, not the top five places I could afford.

ditto La Jolla & Crystal Cove.  Also Palos Verdes & San Marino

Whatever card has the bonus offer.  AMX for everything else.  This quarter Chase Freedom for groceries (5%).  Chase Amazon card had a offer of spending $1500 to get 4000 points (equivalent to $40 back).  Bank of America/easyrewards usually has a 5% on gas or dining or groceries up to $50 every...

Beverly Hills with a beach house (that I wouldn't visit, just brag about) in Malibu.

If it weren't for the ridiculous HOAs, I would buy something like this http://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/5154-Scholarship-92612/home/12253043

I noticed lamb chops at Wholefoods a couple of weeks ago.  I didn't pay attention to the price or quality since I was looking for the $1 hamburger patties they had on sale.

Just from my observation, areas in Orange County where the Latino population is high, you see a lot more kids out and about enjoying parks, playing soccer, hanging out with friends, having a normal childhood.  The only time I see kids in Irvine is at Costco where they're sitting on the floor by...

May I ask why?  I thought the poster was looking for an area where there will be a sense of community and where the kids will be able to be kids.  Most of the newer communities in Irvine seem to lack that.  She wanted a place where "where people come out of their homes".  Honestly, for that a...
