Lol yes. I would have to move from CO to FL so it's a big move...though I do feel like it will pay off because it saves me about 10k a year...
FL is a very beautiful state. Does have some idiots...quite a few idiots...but it's a beautiful state. Don't get closer than 10' to a gator, no matter how badass you think you are (ie: "Here, hold my beer and watch this"), and OF COURSE IT WILL PAY OFF. Are you kidding me? You must be young. That's not an insult. I simply cannot think of a single person over 30 who would ask if they should take a free house offered by their father.

I'd be packing right now.

I'd hang up the phone, insulted at the fact that he thinks I can't handle my finances with the mturk money I bring in.
I haven't followed this conversation but unless there is a legitimate reason why you don't want to accept then accept. If it's a roof over you had and a decent one, not one with critters in it, you are fortunate. if it comes with strings that are too much to bear then you have to say no but if dad is concerned about you and it's real accept it.

the site is never really down, its just extremely temperamental

refreshing or navigating to another subsection of the site will usually get you through with a few tries, but its annoying, especially when you're trying to accept something
lol i had to return a hit cuz of that crap, but whatever i like that you can.

Haha I grew up in FL and am very familiar with the area the house is in. And yess I am :) I am 23. This would be the first house I'd ever own so it's a little intimidating. I'm trying to convince my partner to wanna make the move because he grew up here in CO and would miss it... but we cannot deny the opportunities taking it would bring.

Do your 1k monthly expenses include rent right now?

Yeah, we pay $890 a month in rent and then have other bills. We probably spend about $1500 a month on bills and food/living expenses.
That's hard to support on turking alone. My rent is about the same as yours and I'm looking to move so it will be even more. :cry:

something tells me he wasnt seriously asking us, but just sharing the news.

<--Will accept any free houses in decent condition. Tree houses too.
Wait, you won't take it if it's a fixer-upper? Kinda picky.

Me neither. I'm not cut out for manual labor.

CO isn't going anywhere. Free houses don't fall in your lap every day. Our economic futures always remain uncertain...take any stability you can get, when you can get it. You can always move back to CO if you gave a concerted effort and it didn't work...but I think once you get there, and you aren't paying rent, CO won't seem so cool anymore.

If your partner says, "no" F it, I'll be your partner.

Okay, I wasn't aware of this but I guess a forum is as good a place as any to find out you're moving.
