Ever thought of where you'll be in 15 years?

[GuruMeditation]

But the question is where you'd be/ want to be in 15 years. Or is that the not done part, implying you want to build a house in europe? In that case, no more replies at 9 am for me

off topic, ill be cruising in vive la france in 4 weeks! Doing the west part, and on the way back the champagne district *burb*. Q: since there is so much, what are must go's around Tours area? thx peet

Yes it's the not done part Right now the wife and I are building to having the means to build a house in Europe. Then eventually when the company I'm presently working for expands sufficiently I'll be able to work from Europe. I like this place. Good product, interesting projects ...

For I imagine most people here where do you want to be is what ladder do you want to get on now to get to where you want to be. Once you get married and have kids you're already on that ladder. Now it's just a matter of climbing and trying not to fall off. Some people may want to be retired at 40. But if someone if willing to finance the products I need to experiment with code I'll let them They're paying me to do my hobby.

As for Tours, eh. I'm not a touristy person by nature. The big one is the Chateau at Valencay (and an Italian chef dude I know swears Valencay makes the greatest goat cheese in the world, if that's your thing.) The reason I love the area is for the peace, slow paced beauty of the region. Not because there are 10000 things to see.

not going to create another topic

was watching this special on the history channel with my buddies last night, about the last days on earth. it basically went through a countdown of the worst things that could happen to end life on the planet earth- asteroids, black holes, gamma bursts, etc.

if you could choose one way to go, what would it be?

I wouldn't mind the gamma burst myself. Wiki to the rescue-

The majority of observed GRBs appear to be due to collimated emission from the core-collapse of a rapidly rotating high-mass star into a black hole, but a specific subclass of GRBs (the "short" bursts) appears to be due to another process, possibly the collision of two neutron stars orbiting in a binary. All known GRBs come from outside our own galaxy (though a related class of phenomena, SGR flares, are associated with Galactic magnetars), and most come from billions of light years away.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_burst

The show said the closest star that could throw a gamma burst is like 8,000 light years away or something, and everyone (everything) on earth would still die from the burst. Ozone layer would burn first, then we'd get nice amounts of radiation as the plants died..humanity wouldn't be too far behind either. Cooked like a turkey at thanksgiving.

You mean it wouldn't turn us all into the Hulk? Dammit, and I already bought my purple pants.

Theres literally no point in bringing up end of humanity type situations that we cannot control, because the odds of them happening are basically slim to nil

It's called imagination. Cause really it would be pointless to bring up a question like this anyway, and you know why? We wouldn't get to choose the Armageddon forced upon us anyway.

DJ don't forget to add how you'd like to go

[Epinephrine]

In 15 years? Putting down a down payment on my French Chateau, driving my Porsche, and living in a penthouse condo or million dollar house.

Well ... zombie invasion counts as an apocalypse right? :P Everyone turns undead and gets owned. So that'd be mine :P
