Big Herc, thank you for speaking the Truth - all day, all the time. I've been blessed with an easy life for 60 years, great wife, two sons to be proud of. Cannot even comprehend the hardships you've been through - and still keeping the Faith, it's a testament to your strength and soul. God Bless you and keep on keeping on.

Big Herc. I really like your realistic viewpoints on relocation. I’ve had a similar experience moving to Florida from Tennessee. Me. I love Florida-just the entire vibe of it all. I get it. Wish you well brother. Keep posting. I’ll keep watching.✌🏿💯🌴

Been living in the CA North Bay for 29 years. Recently bought a second home in Prescott Valley, AZ in April. 2.5 years until retirement and I’ll be moving to AZ permanently. And when I leave, I won’t look back.

I vacationed in Scottsdale, the terrain is Awesome! And I live in Nevada

I went last year to the Cardinals vs Seahawks game in Glendale it was so awesome!! I have family there, they're all from LA they moved there in 06 or 07. Anyways they bought some beautiful houses, for cheap compared to CA. But now the prices are pretty expensive because of the influx of Californians.

Too much destruction going on there, too expensive, too much crime, too much corruption in schools... all of it.

Hi Bro, I’ve been in MR for 5 years now and you probably noticed that it’s “Mormon Country”. And I’m listening to your video and just heard you say something about prison time. Careful not to tell anybody about that. You were talking about networking and business. Forget about it in your area if you’re not LDS. They have their network and it’s a bubble. And, when they greet you so friendly, do not be deceived, they are sizing you up. Not just being friendly. And if you have kids, good luck enrolling them in the charter schools (read the ALA comments). And Gilbert PD is very selective if you know what I mean. There is already a movement to stop apartment building, guess why? So that’s all. Just be careful.
