Bucket list
I was wondering how many of you guys have a bucket list and if you do how many items have you fullfilled and how many are left to go
Here is mine as of now
1 - Own a Cobra - Done
2 - Own a FORD GT - Done
3 - Play ice hockey - Done , i started at age 46 and am still going twice a week
4 - Buy a jet boat and guide the Fraser river for Sturgeion fishing here in Vancouver BC - Done
5 - Build mega Hirise projects - Done
6 - Get a hole in one in golf - Done
And my biggest item of all - Some how find a way to move out of BC and into Socal / Norcal so that I can get away from the rain and into the sunshine , if anyone is hiring let me know

... don't be in such a rush to move to Socal / Norcal, once there you really have nothing to live for

A bucket list (by definition) is a list of things you want to do before you die. I have decided to be immortal, so a list like that doesn't apply to me.

Shouldn't your list keep getting new additions as you cross the old ones off?

I'm sure I will add more to my bucket list as time goes on. I don't really have anything specific to certain topics and I don't mind just going with the flow. I've lived a good life so far at 28, so I'm content with whatever life throws at me.
-find a career that I'm happy doing-check
-move in to the house exactly as I pictured-check
-find someone to share the above and below with-check
-have fun with cars/atv's/whatever else-check
-have fun in general-check
-have stability-check...so far
-try not to get seriously hurt along the way by doing stupid stuff-check...so far
-have kids/start/raise/watch family
-semi-retire somewhat early, hopefully around 50 or so and be able to continue doing the above

Not to brag, but I knocked most of those items off before I was 40. These days, it's just about staying alive and having enough energy to play with my remaining toys.

Have you noted the housing prices in CA? Also, the tax rates are only behind Hawaii.
Also, it's really hard to get hired if one is over 50.
