    I have lived in California since 2005 and have loved california for the most part the entire time. However now a days with the new lockdowns, increased crime and mandatory rules that prohibit you from enjoying california (indoor / outdoor dining) and now going as far as saying you are not allowed outside? This is the final straw and this is why I am leaving california, just like graham stephan, ben shapiro, joe rogan and hundreds of thousands of other californian's leaving california.
    I will still keep my place open in California and will come back to visit once a month or every other month (pending the restrictions).

Which is immediately ripped the rug from under our feet. I believe the lack. Of personal power and letting mainstream media think out thoughts really fucked us. There is hope though and we can do things differently this time if we stop supporting these companies that make money off our fear. Thank you for your advice and energy. Love this channel

    Good luck on your next location. I’m not certain but didn’t Newsom put in some sort of tax on Residence if you leave California as a residence he gives you the going away tax gift🎁 or stick to be financially punished? And if you stay 61 days you become a residence to be extort if you leave. Not to mention if you own any of those guns not approved or allowed in California unless grandfathered in that he plus the anti-gun Legislators considers too Evil. Those items will not be allowed back in California but totally acceptable in other states. Thus are you legally allowed to have them in another state being a California resident?

    What your talking about is the norm over the last 40 years I’ve been on this earth. Buying low and renting high or selling. Houses are for people to live in not make another person rich. Just look at our current environment. People can’t pay 1000-1500 a month. On top of that now renters are refusing to pay even if they have the money. Other issue is if you own a property outright you still are at the mercy of your state in taxes. For the majority of the states it’s minimal but for New Jersey it’s like thousands a month.ruclips.net/video/TxFhMVIPodk/видео.html

    The great opportunity you describe unfortunately comes at a price. These opportunities present themselves at the hands of criminals which has disenfranchise large segments of its society (humanity) - thus a relatively few will benefit, as yourself. That same mechanism will visit upon those like you. Greed, has little to no remorse nor loyalty, the ongoing flagrant disregard for the constitution, human dignity /self determination- leaving the millions out in the cold ; these actions of greed and criminals has no barrier of: religion, political party nor ethnicity. Your pitch sounds of that of Robert Kiyosaki.

    Everything you say makes sense, if you’re able to ignore the fact that California’s infection rate has climbed to the highest point since the start of the pandemic.
