[quote=Anonymous]BTW my trip to Florida this place made it clear I want to live ONLY walking distance or a bike ride to beach. My brother lives 3.5 miles from beach and WAY to far.

He was told a bike ride but in reality Beach days are very hot. We went in Sat this weekend and 92 with humidity. That’s 7 mils round trip. Plus we needed a chair, towel and water bottles and sun tan lotion. That is a lot on a bike.

Plus parking lots are small and fill up early and cost to park.

He does not go Beach much as a headache. But he does enjoy restaurants and bars in his beach town

I am not retiring for 6-8 years so hopefully in next housing correction or made bad flood or hurricane I can buy closer in.

Prices are very high my brother paid 550k in 2017 and identical houses sell for 750k to 785k. My brother got a decent deal but not that super amazing.

Look do the math. I am middle class. But I do 401k. But 72 will have around 2.5 million on 401k. I start RMD and Maryland will take a big cut so that sucks. It is based on life expectancy so it ain’t no 4 percent a year. It could be 200k a year. [/quote]
