One of my favorite daily pens is a Pelikan 205 with a fine nib. Mine is a transparent blue demonstrator.

It was on that other forum filled full of cranky old guys that is dedicated to Africa hunting. I think it has been sold now.

Exactly! It is a matter of priorities. My now paid off Ford Ranger was my very first ever new car/truck. Its predecessor was a Honda Pilot bought used in 2005 and sold in 2021 with over 315,000 miles on it. I would add on reflection to read the book The Millionaire Next Door.

I *was* a financial advisor for 25 years and held the CFP certification. I also taught it at our local state university for 10 years. As to how I afford it, my wife and I live frugally and I saved like a mad man before I retired.

I actually don't mind Houston. I worked for a Houston based company for 25 years so that may play into it. The biggest problem with Houston is it is so spread out! I also have a direct flight from NC to Houston though it is Allegiant. Even Delta is relatively cheap to Houston compared to Dallas.
