ok, now we get to the heart of the matter:
“Thought she could make a quick 50k in a year or two and move up.”
i was under the impression that she was in it for the long haul: she moved in, she’s already sick of the place, she put money down on a fixed.
making a lot of money, having a higher degree doesn’t mean smart in everything… i have a physics phd student friend who is a devout christian… and lots of smart folks lose their shirts playing stocks…
she’s a specuvestor who, because of her bigger paycheck and gold leaf degree figured she’d do a flip the “right way”… by putting money down and moving in! and if the “priced out forever” thing were true, it would have simply meant that her move up opportunity would be moving away just as quickly as her “investment” was moving up…
where is she from, anyway? surely not from the hood…?
i’m curious if not frightened of the prospect of all the specuvestors leaving the ship… the working class folks have already been pressured and pushed out, the vacuum of disillusioned gentiles being filled by a fresh wave of tweekers…
