Where would you live after FIRE?

I have 5M in bank and a paid-off house worth 2M, and want to take a break from the rat race, at least for a few years. A little bit more information. I have two kids in elementary school, so I want to optimize for kid’s education, outdoor fun and nice weather. Can you recommend a place for my next stop? Appreciate if you include reasoning. 10yoe, tc420k

I heard California schools teach young kids nasty stuff and brain wash them to a new level...

Nah, that's just SF, San Diego is fine. I would also move to SD if I had FIRE $

This is a “first world” problem, in that there are very few elites like you. I suggest your create a new app to talk about this kind of stuff :)

Spend some on the less fortunate. Take care of some orphans, pay for their education and basic needs

My previous company was acquired by MSFT, and I got a fat check because I was employee #9. You will never “save” that money.
