I don’t think there are very many of us who cashed out. Other than those on this board, I only know of only two other people who cashed out. One person was forced to cash out in 2004 because of job loss and need the cash for a new business venture. The other person moved out of San Diego for a three year military tour. After talking to us, they sold instead of renting out their house. However, they would not have sold if they were still living here.
I think most people are holding their breath, hoping the tsunami passes over quickly.
