[quote=pri_dk]Amazing how people cannot see the bigotry and ignorance in their own words:
“They should have stopped letting people in right after I arrived.”
“They should have stopped building houses right after my neighborhood was built.”[/quote]
I used to work in what was and still is one of the biggest/highest producing RE offices in the SD county. There were a bunch of old timers who used to sit around and complain about the loss of the way things used to be. I would ask them how do liked the great new restaurants and stores we have around and they would say they loved them. I would ask them how they liked that their homes had risen hundreds of thousands in value and they loved than too. I would ask them how they liked the rising rents on their investment properties and they loved that too. I would ask them how they liked bigger commissions on more expensive homes and they loved that too. Then I would say…how do you think all that happened? Its called progress. They would grumble and say you just dont understand to which I would smile and reply no I understand perfectly.
