BigRig, thanks for the prescription. I’m sure that will make me feel better. Let’s be honest, no matter what anybody says, when you’re a renter, you just don’t feel secure. For example, a few months ago, my landlord put this place up for sale. Obviously, no takers, yet. And I know I can always move to another rental, but that’s not the point. At age 50+, I just want to settle down and relax. I’ve even entertained thoughts of moving out of state to a more “normal” area, but I still have a good business to run here, which nix’s that idea. What’s killing me is how slowly this market is deteriorating. I’m not trying to time the bottom perfectly, I just don’t want to feel stupid by buying again near the top, which is where we still are. If this cycle plays out anything like the last, and I suspect it will, then we still have about five more years to go. I’m going to try to hang tough, keep in touch with this board regularly, and keep looking at those bank statements!
