You're the one who said they can get a 'better quality of life' in Hawaii - not me. That doesn't even take into account the cost of groceries which averages 60% higher than the national average and the flights anytime you want to go back to the mainland.

Yes, better quality of life - Better weather, Beaches, Laid back culture, Outdoor activities.  It's not all about cost.   Yes, consumer goods are more expensive in Hawaii, but that is only one component of cost of living.  Go look at the breakdown on the cost of living calculators.  The overall cost of living is similar to DC, but the quality of life is much better for me in San Diego/Hawaii. [/quote] While consumer goods are much more expensive, you can grow quite a bit of fruits and vegetables year round to save of food costs.  [/quote]

On what land?

None of houses for $800K have so much as a yard and I mean that literally.

Oprah might let you work on her $40 million Maui estate though and bring home some veggies for your troubles.
