Nah. Hawaii is pretty sweet too.

I guess it depends where you travel. I travel all over Europe and other international destinations and Boston is missing a lot of cities so would be at least a stop out of Boston plus the commute to Boston. Out of PVD I connect to Newark or Dulles and you can get anywhere.

Could be wrong but I think they change up those daily specials every week or two.

I make a comfortable living without exploiting other people — as do most of us. Guys like you are the outliers: Pretending they're powerless not to take advantage of others, when it's really just a function of their own greed.
Just own it, dude, instead of blaming some mythical "game". The fact that you trot out lame excuses shows you know what you're doing is not OK ...

I've heard that as a general rule, seven years is the sweet spot. You should be planning to stay for at least seven years if you want it to work in your favor financially.

I bought in February 2022. I didn't quite get the historic low rates, but they sure were a whole hell of a lot lower than they are now (about 3.5%). I probably got a deal at the time (incredibly enough, as the market was still really competitive), but Zillow says I'm up about 9%.

You can connect with one stop to anywhere in the world on United. You connect at Newark or Dulles or Chicago and the world awaits.

This should be a consideration. It's complicated but most people will pay higher income taxes in Massachusetts. If you live in Massachusetts but work in Rhode Island, you'll have to pay the difference to MA.

At the risk of being a “well ackshully” guy…there are only so many flights that fly out of Green/Warwick. It sucks, but it’s true.

This changes things a lot. I would say that besides Rehoboth in Massachusetts (which may be worth looking into), Rhode Island is your only real option if you want more of a rural environment while being in easy commuting distance to Providence.

This doesn't fit the definition of a mass shooting for this map. 4 or more people need to have died from the shooting to be on this particular map.

They probably think finding a garbage can it too much effort, that sort of self centered thinking.

Was it Sun Country? They were in PVD for a bit, I did a flight to Minneapolis a couple times and it was good but the airline pulled out after a year or two.

>they have a direct flight when PVD doesn't
This is pretty much going to be the case for most flights to a non-hub city. It’s 7-10 hours to get to Dallas from PVD. It’s 6 going from Logan which makes a day trip possible. You also don’t blow a day of travel if you have an issue with a connection - if your outbound flight is cancelled you have a more productive day and at least will be able to call into a meeting.

I think they chartered a business jet (six seats). Apples and oranges.
