I have an opportunity to move to Honolulu, Hawaii. Has anyone ever lived there? Is it one of those places that Visiting on Vacation is great but Living there is a bad idea? I would only be there for four years max, but is that three years and 11 months to much?

One knock on the place I have is that it is SO FAR AWAY form Carolina Panthers Games...good thing for NFL Package on Direct TV :cool:

Lived there for three years. Great weather, great beaches, good nightlife, but very expensive. Gas and food especially will be higher than anything you are use to.

If you can deal with the cost, its a good place to live. But its a 5 hour flight to California, so you will not get to visit the mainland very much. And watching football at 9 AM on Sunday takes some getting use to. Although Monday night games are perfectly timed for Hawaii.

Thanks for the info.....The job is great and the place sounds great almost to good to be true. How big is the island (not literal size) compared to a city on the mainland I was thinking maybe like the size of Atlanta or a Los Angles size are??

researched it if you have pets they will be detained for 30 days. Sell the car unless you are able to get your employer to pay for shipping it. Same goes with furniture.

Good news is one car (hopefully my truck) will get shipped so I can tow my boat. I heard houses are smaller then on the main land, but when looking online they seem the same size....

      First of all Sooners fan? Mods? Second if you think someone needs a specific reason to hate Texas you don’t watch real college football.

      Fix Your Franchise: Carolina Panthers

      100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.

      Another renovation to BoA?

      By dave-o · Posted

      It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.
