Happy to say I've been to six of these. Curiously, not the Grand Canyon--the closest one to me.

My own list would be quite different of course.  I've seen the S of L, Grand Canyon, Eiffel Tower, and Stonehenge.  It would be an interesting contemplation.

Been to 6 of the 15.  Can say that only one of the rest is on my bucket list and that is the Taj Mahal

I'll take 7 and then 5, and just stay there.

I think the Grand Canyon is hard to view from the ground.

Mapping average credit card debt by State - from Visual Capitalist. Wisconsin has the lowest. Alaska the highest. Despite its significantly lower cost of living, Nevada has a higher average than California, and of course I'm wondering if this is due to household proximity to gambling. Notice Texas, Florida, and Georgia's are noticeably higher for their surrounding region, but those are "higher performing states" with a lot more "bigger spenders."




Here's the chart I like, ranking states according to expected number of months to pay off that debt - by least # of months:



by most # of months:

IMHO this data is pretty meaningless to me. The numbers are all within such a narrow range that I don't know why we should reach all that many conclusions. 

And I'll bet if you map it as percentage of average annual income, it would get even tighter. As is evidenced by the fact that there's a distinct correlation between shorter time to pay off and higher state average annual income, and longer time to pay off and lower state average annual income. 

It actually suggests that a lot of the states with lower average debt are in worse financial positions because they're poorer and it'll take longer to pay off that smaller debt.

Heh. I'm at the Florida average every month, until the next month.

Aerosmith Rocks is an underrated album. Not as good as Toys in the Attic, but very good rock and roll.

Throw in Tom Petty's debut and Hotel California, and that's some pretty good music. But damn, Rush 2112

Lots of good stuff left off of this list, too.
