I have a house with Aluminum wiring throughout. My electrician replace all

electrician said it will need to be tightened in anther 30yrs because of how
soft the aluminum wire is, which is fine for me.

A few people (Home Inspector / Another electrician) told me I should replace
it with copper because of a fire hazard.

I'm going with my friend electrician who says its fine for another 30yrs.

Thoughts?

Trade houses with your 'friend' and let him and his kids sleep in the
house with the aluminum wiring.

My house has the supposedly safe copper-clad aluminum wiring and I will
be replacing all of it this fall. I'm not a fear-mongoring wacko that
doesn't have granite counters because of radon but there is a reason
why animals run from fire.

True, but on the other hand I have smoke detectors all over the place,
one hooked up to a monitoring service, and fire escape routes, and I am
absolutely certain I'm at more risk from those damn candles women like
to light all the time.
