I’m at about a 4 or a 5. I’m in OC, we’re lagging. The kool-aid is still be swilled vigorously by some up here.
I have spatterings of bitterness, not at not owning a home but at the damage the home bubble popping is going to do to the economy. I’m bitter watching Bernanke devalue my dollars at Mach One. I’m watching hiring stagnate. I’m watching consumables explode in price.
I’m getting more bitter that my hard work to develop a secure financial situation may get flushed down the toilet by the Government as they attempt to protect over extended never should have been homeowners from the carnage caused by fraudsters, strippers turn RE Agent, and the Tan Man.
