Ok so what would you do if you ever lost your 'new home' for example?
Everybody's got their achilles heel.

That makes FL pretty unlucky then (major hurricane every other year). And let's not even get started about New Orleans.

OMG!!!!!!!!!! Now that was funny. That reminds me of the joke, "What do you get when you play a country & western record backward?" "You get your wife back, your dog back and your job back."

No, I don't believe New Jerseyans are cursed. I do think a lot of people have very hard times and then we question why it all happened. So I feel for you. I know life can be hard sometimes. I personally don't think it has anything to do with a specific state. Just my $.02.

I'd say it's simply Law of Attraction at work here. Like attracts like- just by the nickname "Stuck in PA", that hints that the OP doesn't like where he(?) is and has a crummy outlook. When that kind of negativity is pervasive in a major area of one's life, negativity starts showing up in other areas, too. Sometimes it shows up as bad luck.

Just a thought...

Wondering what was that "big bad magnet" ? Any chance it was a big fat paycheck ?

I'm told the salaries in NJ/NY metro area are much greater than in other part of the US. I read that you live in Lake Hiawatha & you're making over 100k. Torture? Then you must have in-laws like mine

Live long & Prosper ! Life must be good for you as well.

Jersey Devil - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

See there really is a Jersey Devil! True, I never heard of it until a friend from Philly told me about it.
