[quote=deadzone][quote=an][quote=deadzone]Who said I’m looking to buy a house?
I just want to see asset prices return to their organic, free market, not Fed induced bubble prices. That will be better for society in general. Perhaps there will be some pain along the way but so be it.[/quote]
I’m confused, if you are not looking to buy, then why do you wish pain on people? That’s pretty evil. I thought at least the evilness stems from personal gain (ability and opportunity to finally buy a house). However, if it’s not for personal gain, then it’s just pure evil to enjoying seeing pain and cheerleading for the pain.[/quote]
Why do you believe rooting for lower housing prices is wishing pain on others? Do you not believe lower, more affordable housing is a good thing for society? I only wish pain on greedy investors and others who engaged in risky, leveraged behavior, the ones responsible for this current asset bubble. Clearly you are one of those investors so your definition of “pain on others” is quite biased.[/quote]
History has proven you wrong. Housing crashes hurt A LOT more than just greedy investors. But whatever makes you sleep better at night.
As for me, I already said it many time, I hope you are right and I can buy a several more houses at 1/2 the price today and rent them out at current rent.
