Some people work up characters in a MMOG and then sell them when they get good. Not exactly sure of the details on how it works, but I've heard it's been done. Don't think you'd get much for them, though, but every little bit helps. How about some online classes for her? Maybe she can get hooked on education?

In Hawaii, when you hear another language over the PA speakers, it's generally Japanese. Kore wa, nihongo o hanasu tame ni yoi kotodesu.

Your main problem sounds like it's gonna be economic if you move to Hawaii. Check the rents on Craig's List to see the numbers. I dunno what the rent is like in Florida, is it as high as Hawaii?

We still like the warm weather, even though were tired of Florida crime. We thought about moving to Puerto Rico, but the crime is just as bad and people don't speak English. Someone told us that people use English as their basic language in Hawaii. So we are thinking about Hawaii now.

I smell a swamp.

Even if Shrek posts here, if the other folks don't get all riled up, then the trolling is a bust, isn't it?

To the OP, ignore all the haters. Hopefully your gf is at least contributing financially with her day trading. As for crime, we enjoy a very low incidence of violent crime in Honolulu (when compared to Orlando). However, everything and anything of value that isn't bolted down to concrete will be stolen.

I'm assuming you have checked what rents go for here. They are about 50-60% higher. In terms of COL, for every $4.40 you spend in Orlando, you'll need $6.10 here.
Thanks, I always ignore haters! If your not part of the solution your part of the problem.

She has broken even on day trading, or lost money. I have told her there's no need to do it anymore.

The only things we own of value are our laptops, iPhones and a '98 Ford Escort.

Go through the OP's post history and you'll regret calling us haters.

^ Well, you know, if you don't like someone's post you don't need to follow them from one forum to another, like you are doing. There is a way to ignore.

Joey, I think Pj737 has mentioned he has over 20 rental properties - and he loves pets, so it will be pet friendly - hit him up, I'm sure he can hook you up.

Well since I don't adjust rent to full market every year like most of the landlords here do, I have virtually zero turnover; units are rarely available.

So apparently I need to go back to see what the reputation of someone is in the CDF to confirm if their current post has any merit or may be helpful to other members or visitors (i.e. not members). And if, from my readings of their previous posts, I can confirm they have a bad reputation in the forum, I can simply write off their questions and start belittling them?

Well, I guess that's the CDF way

They were specifically referring to the OP's saying one comment was so very rude, when the OP is guilty of himself, rather abundantly. When you've been here awhile you learn other poster's online personas.
