After years of hummin’ and hawing Leslie and I have decided to invest in property. We signed the deal on a new condo in Edmonton. It’s still unclear what we’ll do, but now there are options. For example, Zak and Doug are still living here and might stay, or we might ship them off to live amongst the non-St Albertian, non-elite, non-high taxpaying crowd.<\/p>\n
What we have are options (…and two mortgages!). So herein will lie the chronicles of trying to live beyond our means. <\/p>\n

\nSeems with Zak’s imminent adulthood, St Albert is starting to wear. A good place to raise a kid but it really tends to isolate you if you have my kind of mentality. But where to go… “north side” votes her… “Mill Creek” dreams I… Or maybe a highrise, or maybe an acreage, or maybe Highlands, or how about Strathcona…<\/p>\n
\nWell if you know Leslie and I you know this one took about 3 seconds… spend $400,000 on something we don’t need without doing the appropriate research and comparison shopping…? OK.<\/p>\n
\nWhat can I say… more the fools they…<\/p>\n
