It makes no sense to buy a house if you're not going to stay at least 10 years. The average length of ownership before selling is 3 years. (or that's what it used to be when people could actually sell!).
There are reasons, as I've stated before, why people may need to move.
Well there are jobs available in those areas elsewhere you either haven't looked or don't care for where they would take you.
Not to mention don't you think that cost of living might have been considered before limiting your career choices? Those willing to be the most flexible tend to do best.
As a matter of fact there are specific agencies who market directly to those seeking work in the intelligence field--to include linguistics and cryptology--and yes, some are even in the Tampa Bay area.

I'd realize that I did what I wanted, took a risk and may not be able to choose to move elsewhere when I next felt like it without potentially paying a price for it.
I do think your grandmother is lucky to have your support. I'm sure she's a very special person to have someone willing to take her in and care for her like you did.
>>Either that, or we could have had my grandmother move into an assisted living place and not have worried about providing a home for her.<<
But you didn't WANT to do that. And quite frankly I don't blame you.

Our old home would have been fine for having children, a little cramped, but fine.
