So you want to move to Scottsdale?

Just beware of the Robo-Ubers:

Don't worry, our normal distracted human drivers kill waaaaay more pedestrians on an annual basis.

EDIT: the investigation into that whole debacle concluded that dude walked out into the street, at night, and any human driver would have nailed him with the same fervor (but probably more regret).

Both are great places to live!

I second this.

Had lunch yesterday with @Wolfman , @GuitarManDan (both just moved to town), and @Jamie T

For the others about to move here soon, let me know so we can arrange to set up more regular meetups like this.

Great to meet everyone yesterday! There's definitely a lot I can learn from you guys - we'll have to do it again sometime soon.

What do you think of Gilbert, AZ or Chandler, AZ? Seems to have pretty good school rating and purchasing a home is pretty cheap.

As someone who has been living in Gilbert for the past year+, it really is a great place. Gilbert specifically has it going on, the Heritage District is booming, and the city is just planned out well. Personally I live in the northern part so I am 20-30 minutes from Scottsdale/downtown which is great - getting out into someplace like San Tan, you get a bit too far from things for my taste.

Hey @vth I need to add you to the list too By my count now, there are approximately 25 forum members in or around the Phoenix area now (and growing!)

I'm moving my family and business down to Peoria this summer. Would love to meet up with you guys when I get down there.

San Tan is a drive to get pretty much anywhere... but the cheap houses and huge lots help make up for it lol.

Looks like I should be moving in to Tempe on the 23rd of this month.

@Eskil

I'll be maybe EOM July or August for a temp. visit with wife.

At some point it will come down to S. Florida with @Vigilante or the Scottsdale area with all of you all.

Also looking at the island life. I haven't crossed out St Thomas either at this point.

I'd answer with my thoughts but I don't have any time because I'm out on a boat on the Gulf of Mexico.

And I'm heading to the beach in san diego for seven days. That rv of mine comes in handy sometimes. Beach front campsite with my crazy dogs... Life is good. Is it not @Vigilante?

I got a nautical themed pashmina afghan
I'm the king of the world, on a boat like Leo
If you're on the shore, then you're sho' not me-oh

 

[Gunther Herzog]

Oh wow!

I'm stunned by this thread!
It is amazing. I really just wanted to share my admiration to all contributers and especially to the creators of this thread.

I just fall in love to live with/live near other commited fastlaners.

I am also moving in September into the biggest city of switzerland, Zürich.
The reason to move there is the magic of numbers: In the village I live now in, there only live 7002 people. If every one of 10000 is thriving fastlaner, the probability of finding one is low in this village.

In Zürich, there live 402'762 inhabitants. So there are all of the sudden 40 potential fastlaner, instead of no one. Isn't that amaying?

<You are the average of the 5 people you spent the most time with>
If you are around 5 idiots you will be the 6th.
If you are around 5 fastlaners you will be the 6th one.​

Choose wisely who you surround yourself with.


Congratulation to all of you who moved to Scottsdale!

Fun (but slowlane) job and doesn't hurt to be back around some cool Fastlaners to get the creative, entrepreneurial juices flowing again.

We're always game for a new sucker at the poker table!

Speaking of which, we need to have the next one at my new place.

 

[DustinH]

I'm coming to North Scottsdale from May 20-23. Anybody want to meet up for a beer or lunch?

Your best bet here is to post a new meetup thread a week or so before you arrive. Sometimes they hit, sometimes they don't!

SteveO, talked to you twice at the Summit. Let us know if you want to grab a beer or lunch while you're here. @Gary might also be up for it?

 

[LightHouse]

At some point it will come down to S. Florida with @Vigilante .

The guest room is a little cramped but since @Vigilante loves to snuggle there is room in his cali king bed for the whole family.

Remind me, what are the dates of your visit?

(We have a campsite reservation this month in Coronado. I love me some beach camping)

Silver Strand

Silver Strand

Can't beat that place. Park next to the sand with power and water hookups. Hodad's paradise! I go there at least once a year.
