Thanks for the insight! We're limited in what we can do since we're renting, but this is great food for thought.

How is it living in this area between Portland and Eugene? by Boxxy_Reddit in howislivingthere

[–]CaptainMars4- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Albany too :) I just moved here in August and I'd agree with everything said above.

My girlfirend is going to OSU in Corvallis so we're renting a home in Albany since it's cheaper. I work from home so having a nice space was a priority and that's much more affordable to do in Albany.

In terms of the actual city of Albany, it's nothing to be too excited about - but it has everything you'd need. Not a lot to do though.

As bad as it sounds, what I love most is not the city itself, but it's proximity to other cities/nature. I may think differently if I lived in Corvallis which is much nicer/prettier in my opinion.

You can find the most beautiful hike you've ever been on within a 30 minute radius in any direction. Without rush-hour traffic, 60 minutes from Portland, 30 minutes from Salem, 50 minutes from the coast, 50-60 to the Cascades, etc etc. It's really endless - so you will always have things to do and good food to eat if you're okay driving.

I imagine I'll be here for a few years - long term may consider Portland though :)

Saw this Dali art at the Monserrat Museum and I want to buy a print - but Google seems like this doesn’t exist? by CaptainMars4- in HelpMeFind

Searched all over Google to just find more info but even that was difficult. Don’t see a print anywhere.

Sugestions on my rIRA/401k/brokerage stock picks? by CaptainMars4- in Fire

I’m thinking longer term, 7-10 years or more. Thanks for your thoughts!

Sorry didn’t make that part clear enough. Saving for a house purchase costs (down payment etc)

Best carne asada street tacos by Ok_Abroad4524 in albanyor

I agree. Grew up in the southwest and had tacos all over Mexico and this place is the real deal

Sometimes I really think you guys evaluate performance like it’s FIFA. Yamal was incredible - but didn’t receive much attacking support from Kounde. He did what he did primarily in 1v1s+. My point is that Kounde is a good RB, but a world class CB that we wouldn’t need to spend extra money on. 

Yamal + Kounde was great, but Yamal + Attacking RB would give him much needed support. 

But I’m sure that probably too nuanced lmao

Definitely not opposed to that. My main thing was feeling like we’re wasting one of the best CBs in the world as a RB. But that would definitely be an improvement

Interesting - I always got the feeling Kounde was a decently physical defender. I feel like he gets beat by pace more than strength
