If money were no object?
If you were young, had a college degree, single, and could afford to live anywhere, where would it be and why?
I suppose I really shouldnt limit the question....if money were no object where would you live?  Preferably answers within the states. Out of the states, I would pick Scotland though  |

Let's see, if money was no object, I wouldn't have to worry about working so proximity to a job with a good career is not important. I guess if you're loaded you wouldn't need a college degree either.
For me, I would still move to North Dakota where I'm planning on moving anyway. The difference being, I would purchase 1000 acres on the high plains, build a 10000 square foot mansion set back far from the road and a 20000 square foot commercial pole building to house all my motor vehicle toys. I would definitely be adding to my fleet of vehicles with all kinds of cars, trucks, tractors and trailers.
That to me would be a dream. But, since I will never be loaded enough for that, I'll settle for a few acres, a moderate sized house and pole barn.

A place where the temperatures never (or very rarely) get above 70-75, because I can't handle the heat.
