You're offered $10k to move back to the first home you remember living in , would you accept?

[Reecejackox 410]

I would honestly of course 

[Splashee 28,581]

Too easy....

 

I already still live at my first home. So, free $10k

[Flying Pencil 3,026]

Yes. I would take it

 

[Clawdeen 15,958]

Yes even though I wasn’t happy there

[Splashee 28,581]

I'll move back for only $10. My home is awesome!

[Ocean Breeze 5,142]

Yes I would take it, it was actually a pretty decent looking house.

[LassAmy 39]

I would then be living in a different state so no. Maybe for $100,000 though?? 

[Prospekt 11,027]

It's actually closer to work than where I'm living now. And I remember it being cozy. But I don't know if the area itself is all that pleasant nowadays because I rarely drive through that part of the suburbs. So I'd have to look into it first.

[Electrified Airstream 18,552]

I still live in that home so yes.

[Stone Cold Steve Jobs 22,469]

Do I have to pay the monthly rent for it? I’d do it if it was free but $10k won’t even get you 6 months there. Probably more like 3-4 if you’re lucky.

[ZiggWheelsManning 11,881]

As blue as the home was, I'll accept it for the memories  

[Megas 27,919]

I was like 3 and only remembered one thing there. It was a pretty well off area so it wouldn't hurt

Honestly, I would move back into that house for free. No one has to pay me for that one.

[Denim&Venöm 19,746]

Considering the first home that I remember was a leased out condo in San Diego and $10K wouldn't even cover the deposit with how bad things have gotten down there, I'd have to pass. 

 

[Dreambiscuit 10,563]

Heck yes I’d accept! Even though I was born in Pennsylvania, the first place I actually remember is Blacksburg, Virginia. I LOVED Blacksburg when I was little, and I even had a chance to revisit it in 2009. It was a bit different looking to my adult eyes but I still loved it and would move there happily, especially with a 10K check clutched in my sweaty little fist.

[ZiggWheelsManning 11,881]

Sometimes the first place one lives in (aside from an offer) brings the best memories @Dreambiscuit  

[Envy 6,263]

I currently live in that home. Check in with me in half a year to a year and see how I'd answer since I'm moving.

Chances are I'd say no. The house itself is nice and comfy. I'm going to miss it and I'm not happy that we're selling what could have someday been a guaranteed home for me passed down. But the problem is that it's in Oklahoma, where freedoms are gone/being taken away and the climate is downright miserable. I don't think that I can say that this home is sustainable either way going into the future.

So, yeah, as much as I could use $10K, I like having freedoms and safety more.

[Clawdeen 15,958]

Seeing how now that place was broken into and robbed uh no. I'll pass

[Megas 27,919]

lol hell no. An apartment in one of the most well off towns in the county, that actually sounds good until I remember it’s In Southern California. 10k wouldn’t even cover half the year

[Stone Cold Steve Jobs 22,469]

I wish I could, but 10k is not enough for me to be able to stay there. I wouldn’t afford the monthly payments

[Raskolnikov 142]

No, but only because it's back in my home country and wages are unlivable there I miss my first home, don't have fond memories of the suburb but I have fond memories of the first house, unfortunately we were paying rent for the place (and the landlady was a cold monster) so I can only see it from a distance... it hurts to be honest cos I have fond memories of the garden that feel primordial now :/ Our first dog is buried there too, the landlady told us to get rid of the memorial but I remember the location... be nice to say hi.

We still own the flat where I grew up. I would have no problems moving back into it.

[Xada 482]

It's free money for me

[Envy 6,263]

No. As great as the house itself is, the location is not it. I'm so glad I left Oklahoma. I never plan to go back. It would be nice to have $10,000, but life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are more important and those are the reasons I left OK for a better state.

[Acinonyx 147]

Absolutely not, the town is a glorified retirement home with nothing to do and nothing nearby. Nasty place with nasty people.
