I think Joe eating in the background makes this weekly wrap up the greatest ever!
I live in Omaha because my girlfriend is going to Creighton Medical, so I moved here.
But as a kid I idolized Buffett and went to school in NYC to follow his path but ended up hating the financial world (paid off I guess).
After college started a business or two and now I'm in a city similar to my hometown (Syracuse) that is a hot spot for small business and startups.
I think its destiny that I'm here, not just the only option.
I live in Omaha because I can walk to work, enjoy time with my family and friends and still do lots of cool stuff that I used to do in Chicago but only for less money.
Need I say more?
The best reason for living in Omaha today is this gorgeous almost Spring weather!
I live in Omaha because my wife was moving here with or with out me.
But I have been very happy with the outcome and plan on staying here for a while.
I live in Omaha because our small-town flavor complements our big-city feel, making almost anything possible.
I live in Omaha because when other kids when to tropical places for vacation, we went to Omaha...Peony Park!!
Christan – Need you say more? Nope, because you just won an I Live in Omaha tee compliments of John Henry Müller and his team at What Cheer.
Congrats! I'll be sending an email your way with more details.
And thanks so much to those of your who left a comment or tweet (http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%23iliveinomaha) with your reason of why you live in Omaha.
