Strider Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share Posted January 19, 2022 I never seem to get a wallet that lasts more than a couple of years. What is the longest your wallet has ever lasted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1975NQ Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I've had the same black leather wallet since 1999 😂 They all look the same, perfect thing to just hold onto and not replace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I borrow that for these fucking leaf blower idiots? I've had my wallet for a while and all it's done is get fat, and not from having too much cash either. Finally got my interface to work on my computer. Most of the fuckin' DAW's wouldn't work either. Very frustrating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stryder1978 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I've been to 56 countries, all seven continents. Split, Croatia is the most perfect city I have ever been to and I want to retire there. I think Croatia knows it and has done everything possible to keep people from doing that. To become a permanent resident or obtain citizenship, you have to have Croatian ancestry or marry a Croatian! Hair color is not important for a faux marriage.....I am willing to pay her for the privilege. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is where my mother's family heralds from and it is a stunningly beautiful country. My Great-Grandfather owned a resort in the hot-springs town of Catez ob Savi until WWII. When Tito took over after the war the lands and property were confiscated by the state and he was allowed to manage the place until his death (how generous). After Slovenian independence in 1991 the remaining family petitioned to have the lands and property returned which was granted by the government so it is back in family hands where it belongs. The area is simply breathtaking, rolling mountains, hot-springs, and the area is located right on the Slovene-Croat border about 50 miles from Zagreb. I hope you achieve your dream Stryder, it really is an enchanted land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday he doubled down on all his debacles and claimed that he out preformed his campaign promises, inflation is caused by the supply chain and that after 20 years in Afghanistan there is no easy way to withdraw and then to cap it off he starts talking smack about minor incursions into Ukraine. I call bullshit on all of those statements. This idiot put eleven thousand people out of work on day one and destroyed our energy independence in one fell swoop. That started inflation and took more money out of the pockets of people with doubled gas prices yet he says people have more money in their pockets!! Then this idiot gets 13 American soldiers killed while conducting the worst military drawdown ever. I could have done better Here's how. 1. You make the actual decision to leave. 2. You inventory all personnel, military assets, weapons, vehicles and anyone who helped you. 3. You figure out how long it will take for everyone and thing to be moved out in a safe and orderly manner. 4. Then you tell the country when you'll be leaving, If the number crunchers tell you that it will take 6 months you tell them you need 2 years maybe more. 5. You start handing out travel orders in a quiet manner. Once you get all Americans out you start bringing out anyone who helped you then the equipment and all that word covers. 6. You use Bagram Air Force Base instead of the local airport. This is a no brainer!! 7. you keep the military in country to till the operation is completed. Another no brainer 8. When all our stuff is out then and only then do you remove the military and you destroy the bases and anything else we have to leave behind on the way out instead of leaving them behind for the enemy to use against you. I cant believe this guy is still trying to say there was no other way to do it and NOW he's also saying ONLY his plan can get the country right again. Biden is a tool for the people controlling him, and those people are as incompetent as I am when it comes to what I know about trigonometry. But no more mean tweets.

I hope you achieve your dream Stryder, it really is an enchanted land. I checked out living on either side of Croatia. Slovenia did look promising, but citizenship requires taking a language proficiency exam and the loss of my US citizenship. Albania looked like it's the best bet - 7 years and you can become a citizen there just buy buying (non-agricultural) property. But there and Montenegro requires a language test and giving yup your other citizenships. If I was you, I'd become a Slovenian citizen by right of descent. Lucky you!!!
