[quote=sdrealtor]We are going to have a contest and the winner gets a decent bottle of wine. I just got back from a potential clients and saw their year end paystubs for last year. I did not list the property because it didnt fit what I thought I could do. Its a dual income household. Both work in the public sector. One in health care and the other in public safety. Lets see who can guess the 2011 gross earnings for the household not including any benefits paid for by their employer.

Have at it and dont be afraid of going over.

Contest runs through Monday.[/quote]

Well shit dave.

Might as well ask the same question of you and me.
Considering that we both work in real estate and that market is fully subsidized by a socialist/public debt market.

The only reason we have super cheap mortgage rates is because those bonds are bought by taxpayers with a gov’t guarantee.

In other words, we agents are on the dole. Taxes are what pays for things like houses in north county and bottles of nice wine.

So, sit poolside and sip some Consilience or Fess Parker and tell me how much we taxpayers are getting screwed.

Actually, make that a Cinnabar rustic primitivo.

I like my hypocrisy with an dryish tannin-oak bite.
