Hey guys, thank you all for the great responses. I really appreciate it.
For those of you who registered your weapons, where exactly did you register them? The local PD? And how did you feel after you registered them? It seems like it would be an easy way for them to come by and grab your gun if the law were to ever change! A scary thought...
As for the job situation, I can easily work from home with jobs from the mainland. I don't forsee that becoming an issue... at least not in the near future.
For being considered a haole, I'm not too worried about it. I spent my whole early life being the minority and I'm used to it. Also when I visited Oahu most locals I spoke with thought I was also a local. Regardless, it won't become a problem for me unless they block my view of the beach
And cost of living can't get much worse than where I live now. I'm located in the silicon valley, where a 2+2 can cost close to a million in the right area. Life here is too fast, the human congestion in the valley is nauseating, and cost of living is growing every day. I think Hawaii will be a nice change of pace and I've always enjoyed surfing, but norcal waters are too f*ckin cold!
I'm not sure which island to live on yet. I suspect cost of living and location will be a factor. I would like to be located within walking distance of the beach of course, and not too rural... wouldn't like to drive more than 15 minutes to reach the nearest grocery. I've only been on Oahu and that seemed great. I liked what I saw on the north shore.
