The important question is did it snow that year?

It is very unpredictable dont know if it will be 20 or 70 that is part of the negative to the weather. Now dont get me wrong I love the weather coming from Buffalo and think overall it is nice having all four seasons but it is not something I would use as a selling point as MANY places have better weather.

Yes it is a Neato. One of the competing brands and had a feature or two we liked more than Roomba. Not to mention a whole lot more affordable. I had a Roomba years ago and it stunk.
The tech in these things has gotten a whole lot better over the years. This little guy is something else.

We have a roomba, works well for us, looked at the neat at the time and it was lacking comparatively speaking, but that was a few years ago.
It is definitely worth having. Although I need to find the towers that block off areas, have a couple of no fly zones in the new house he gets stuck on.

My Roomba was always getting stuck. The new versions (from both companies) really have some incredible tech. Samsung and LG are also in on the action and so is Dyson. Price wise though, the Neato comes in significantly cheaper. There are really cheap units, but the reviews and features are severely lacking. When we started searching, it was Roomba, LG, Samsung and Neato only. I know Roomba and Neato make up like 95% of the marketshare right now.
Im just shocked at the tech and how far it has come over the years.
You guys talking about income tax are killing me. If I didn't pay income tax my life would be soooooo different it's scary (in a good way).
Also, my wife has been wanting a Roomba for awhile and this is the first I've heard of Neato. Time to do some research.

We pay income in FL. Federal tax is still there. Just no individual state income tax. Most states charge it, some do not.

I have tried elsewhere and for some its just part of life. Its different for everybody. For me I can take that money and max out my IRA with the savings every year. That is a big deal come retirement time.

Little late on this.
But this story reminds me of the Everybody Loves Raymond episode where Ray gets in actual shoving match with a lady over the spot outside a grocery store for their respective Girl Scout daughters.
One of the funniest episodes ever.

Its still 5k for 100,000 earnings which is near maxing out the IRA for an individual per year. Thats a lot of money. I know that it is not the same for everybody and it means different things to different people.
Oh no I completely agree with you. I'd be down in FL in a heartbeat if I had a job option down there. My grandparents live in the Melbourne area and I would love to come down that way. I was just pointing out it's not as bad as 7% in Ohio.
Little victories JB, little victories. Gotta try to think positive when it's a negative windchill outside haha
