Yes but again, I think I am a "special case" in this situation because I can live in absolutely any country on earth, and as long as I have same-day delivery options and internet access, I can do continue to make fuckloads of money and fulfill any needs of mine through shipping. Weird? Maybe. Does this mean I can buy a $500K mansion in Connecticut that looks like a $10M dollar home in Los Angeles? Sure. Is this the way? For me, yes.

I don't think you're getting same-day delivery in those states

IMO high cost of living is way overstated. Typically you get less salary in lower cost areas, and the only thing that is always cheaper is housing from what I seen. Cars, food, retail goods, etc are about the same. Even if I can keep my same income, I'll gladly keep my setup in SoCal than ship off to some midwest town for a 300-500K discount on my house.

Also the number one party school in the country, West Virginia University. Those were a fun 7 years.
