I use to surf in front of this home when in college, so when I got the call that it was available we made an offer.

Managed to save $16k intending to invest, was finishing school, and surfing and training jiu jitsu every day.

Surf Kohl's and you might find more things.

Found the deal by surfing the neighborhoods.

Hawaii has better weather (best in the world many would say), world class hiking and scenery (often a 5-10 minute drive, as opposed to 1-2 hours from a city in CA), better beaches by far, better surfing, less taxes and less red tape, more landlord friendly in HI (can evict in 3 weeks), better travel hub to Asia, etc.CA and NY residents suffer from the same fate.
