    Why Do the Chinese Love Irvine?

    Young Indian families go to the Bay area these days or Irvine if the job is down here. Is Cerritos stil as nice as it was in the 80s? I always thought it was an oasis surrounded by sketchy Artesia/Norwalk/Bellflower.

    Panda's Art Gallery by Sarang Design | Korean American Designer

    I think you're on to something though it isn't solely spiritual. Atheists marry too but what are the factors diminishing the drive to marry? Is SK seeing a similar epidemic of low testosterone that we're witnessing with the younger generation here, driven by too much vegetarianism, stress and...

    Need some professional opinion here? Should I sell or should I rent it out?

    You are dangerously close to screwing yourself. Your non-mortage debt is sky high for your income - that is your cash flow drain. Sell the stock and use your cash to eliminate the debt, but you have to pay cap gains so maybe do a cash out refi for $300K at 6.5 or 7% which is a lot cheaper than a...

    It's Friday so WTH...I have ...experience with most Asian cultures. My completely politically uncorrect assessment: Korean women - the most prim and proper but animals inside. usually larger cup sizes. Vietnamese women - smartest and usually pretty hot Mainland Chinese - most status conscious...

    Heart of Parenting, Marriage, and Family

    The toughest thing is maintaining and growing the relationship with your kids while being an actual parent. There will be moments of pain as the frontal cortex develops. I found fosterig the same athletic hobbies I obsess over - golf, surfing, snowboarding - was something our son grabbed onto as...

    Irvine Valley College - The Blue Ocean Strategy to UCLA

    Ours just played JV/Varsity football and track. He wanted to play travel baseball but never put in the extra work to get to that level beyond little league and that was the gate for the high school baseball team. Looking back I'm glad we had him every night.

    never descended to 0.0 but flirted with Double Secret Probation from tossing a couch off the roof of Birnkrant dorm. 85 was still wild times at USC.

    Irvine High School vs. University High School

    I was an original BBS guy - 300 baud modem on my Atari 800 in the early 80s, lusting after a Hayes 1200 Smartmodem. I remember downloading Duke Nukem for my little brother in Irvine in the early 90s.

    Olivewood at Portola Springs by New Home Co.

    Good job Panda - you used your EQ to win the beauty. EQ took me a long time to develop and my wife has been very patient witn me this whole time. Winning her hand in marriage is my life's greatest accomplishment.

    Olivewood at Portola Springs by New Home Co.

    married for almost 30 years and I chose well but had more than 2 hrs to explore for skeletons in the closet. Funny thing is my wife and prior GF were both in long term relationships when I met them - the good ones are always taken!

    Irvine High School vs. University High School

    The really old one, the one up the street from the Van Halen house, the one that began with a B or the one over near Hastings Ranch? Or a private like Maranantha? I went to the one by HR. My graduating class was 50% black, 30% Mexican and 20% white/other. About the best part were the Friday/Sat...

    Irvine Valley College - The Blue Ocean Strategy to UCLA

    you're right to worry. close to a decade of tackle football toughened our kid yet he was still snowflakey when he'd receive criticism and had super low EQ. A few years of college at a Big 10 school far away from home has been a priceless experience to help him get his act together. Now he's VP...

    Irvine Valley College - The Blue Ocean Strategy to UCLA

    Then you're a soph in the freshman dorm - kind of lurky. There's nothing wrong with these alternate routes but ROI should factor in the impossible replacement costs for lost experiences.
