[quote=paramount]I wanted to get in the mind of the schemers of the Real Estate world, the very people who turned real estate into a market not unlike the stock market, where you buy a house low and sell high just like a stock 4-6 years later.
The same scammers who are as responsible as the liar buyers in decimating the only asset I really had – my house.
I figured I better start learning how these schemers operate, so at least next time I won’t be such a fool.
I would say 80%+ of the piggs on this board fall into the category of schemers IMO.
For the Love of Money…that’s what drives these schemers 24/7/365.[/quote]
I think that it would be accurate to say that bitterness and spite are weaknesses and that those who are bitter and spiteful are often fools or at the very least foolish.
I came to this site after several clients asked me about stuff they had read here.
Some was insightful and some was stupid.
For example, the assumption that land scarcity would push prices higher in the short term was a little stupid.
Semi-racist comments referring to south-asians as “sanjay” were stupid.
Discussions about making sure that purchases fell within a single deviation of the historical purchase-to-income coefficient was insightful.
I am really glad to hear all the conversations though. Even those I strongly disagree with help to broaden my understanding of the market and the actors in it. I just wish we had more happy hours. I really like talking shop over beer. I would like to see josh drink more though. He always seems a touch intense. It would be nice to see him relax.
