The short answer is that my plan (more of an obsession, lately) is to buy out some other relatives and make the move to the Cape, renovate my grandparents' retirement home turning it into a salt shaker with plenty of room for guests, grandchildren and fishermen and a porch so we can enjoy Scrabble and Cribbage and watching sunsets on Bass River. My father's health isn't that great, so I need to be there for him. I just know that's where I'm happies and where I need to be. But that's the short answer, there's so much to do and think about, including having a 100+ year old house on the property razed, planning for 3 mor years of college and potentially two weddings, my wife has about 6-7 years left working for the state of NJ to get her pension while after 30 years there, I'm so stressed with work I'm on the verge of accepting a "package" and start a new phase in my life (which I have no idea where that may take me.

Does your wife know you are planning to get married two more times?

Puerto Rico will tax the crap out of you. Worse than any New England state.

It's a pipe dream given my family history etc I'll retire to a crematorium. In any case if I a am so lucky to retire with my faculties it's where I'd want to be
