weegegirl 2 #2 October 24, 2002 Great idea. That is my precise plan for next year too. You just beat me to it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #3 October 24, 2002 Sounds like a plan dude. You know the rule of thumb for this, right? Keep downsizing until you scare yourself, then back up a size. Oh, also, remember to start off slow when downsizing, little gatherings, just some friends, before you start ripping those crazy hook-up parties that are screaming... --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Chivo 0 #4 October 24, 2002 There's always a trade-off, you just have to figure out which one is more important to you.... space? or skydives? You could also make this more scientific by making a direct relationship between the amount of square feet and the number of skydives per year, then you can find an optimal solution where you still live in a comfortable apartment and have X amount of more jumps each year.

grega 0 #5 October 24, 2002 noo man, you are going to kill yourself with that small appartment, 100+ jumps is not that much. I can't look how people with little jumps go buy that litlle pocket appartment. "George just lucky i guess!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jumperconway 0 #9 October 24, 2002 Dude your nuts! Downsizing like this is crazy. Get rid of the appartment alltogether! There are plenty of street corners available for you to make some REAL jump money while you're bagin' you're shit under some vacant overpass! I would be much more civil to someone with a sign saying "HOMELESS, NEED JUMP MONEY, THERE'S BEER AT THE D.Z."No cramping up with the walls moving in on ya, the great outdoors, no walls! Just think about 500 more jumps,awsome! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyboy62000 0 #11 October 24, 2002 I'm all for ditching the apartment all together. There's always a little nook at a dz somewhere for me to live. Plus $350 a month is like 20 more jumps.

potatoman 0 #19 August 20, 2010 Get a new job, close to the DZ, arrange for a stand there, get a small caravan, and cycle to work and back. Sell the car, sell the apartment, should have more than a 100jumps.You have the right to your opinion, and I have the right to tell you how Fu***** stupid it is.
