i am currently living in Seward Alaska. Broke, living in a camper trailer, no heat, no electric, no nothing. Just ruffing it.

I could either move up to Girdwood,AK and work for a fucking dope mountain, Alyeska Resort, or i could move to NH to work at Waterville valley and have a free place to live.

so stick it out in the camper and ski the best snow all winter or go to NH.

Why the fuck would you ever choose Waterville over Alyeska? You already know how to live in your camper, and you'll be getting paid so you can maybe have some heat and shit.

I can guarantee you will regret going to NH. you should probably go to Alyeska, but also keep in mind that there is always a 3rd option

I've found that whenever I look back on "life decisions" I had to make, I always regret not doing something awesome and getting less money than doing something OK and getting more money.

You will always be able to find a way to pay bills. Life isn't about paying bills, its about having the most fulfilling experiences possible. If that means not living in a free house, so be it.

Hahaha you asked the wrong crowd for life advice.

Personally, I'd definitely take the job at Alyeska.

Based on these two qualifiers alone I'm gonna have to go with NH.

If you can live with no heat in Alaska though, the skiing will be more than worth it. Personally I couldn't do an entire winter in alaska with no heat or electricity though

Neither of these are REAL life decisions. That being said. Stay in AK.
