i always have it in the back of my mind that when I retire i'll bail on SF and buy some cheap house in the rust belt and just do whatever.

i'll probably retire overseas but eh idk who knows what the future holds.

am I wrong in thinking that by having a monopoly as a rural internet provider you just put a bunch of directional patch antennae on top of the local coop/ water tower, farm the rest out to a Bangalore call center and tell anyone that comes at you to eat poo poo?
