[quote=sdcellar]Russell, I’d think think it would be sellers that address “buyer’s objections”. A shrewd seller would never let truth or facts get in the way. I’m also sure you’re familiar with “sins of omission”?

Just remember that people can lie to themselves just as easily as any salesperson can. These are called rationalizations.

I’m not saying people shouldn’t hope for a better tomorrow and all that, but they should go in with their eyes wide open.

I appreciate that it’s nice for people to feel good about their choices, but at some point…[/quote]

I could be wrong but I think SRO has been accused of being in sales on this thread? Sales people, as you know, do often times exert themselves to overcome “buyer’s objections”. I was just addressing that hypothetical situation. Maybe SRO craves having piggs for neighbors, and who can blame him. He could trying to overcome potential “buyer’s objections” w/o actually sinning?

As far as feeling good about one’s choices…nobody really knows why they do for sure… if they can afford it,and maybe even if they can’t, pushing on them might be, to use one of flu’s favorites, “sour grapes”.
