So I've been having the same feeling as many on this board - that something is likely to go very wrong in the not very far future.

I haven't found anything liveable for my family of 5 for less than around $150k and then I'm on my own on my farm - frankly I'm not the best guy to protect the family from murderous marauders who want what I have. I think even if a couple more folks join me, I'll be better off, but who knows.

And I can vacation there a couple of times per year so the kids can learn to ride horses and shit.

Thank you in advance you marvelous crazy family.
