[quote=socrattt]PR, thanks for the response. As for you Urban, that response seems to be expected from an someone with your intelligence level. Don’t get too excited because you have few escrows open. Reality will set in with you as well.[/quote]
Hey man. You asked the question and opened the post.
No I don’t see your point.
If your contention is that you are smarter than I, well that is certainly a possibility but your post is not good evidence of it.
I don’t really have a disagreement with your general misanthropy regarding the public. I just don’t think that your condemnation is particularly nuanced or useful. Your remarks are the economic equivalent of that dude in college who stands on the knoll yelling about how we are all sinners (and going to hell) for our perceived sexual practices and perceived faithlessness. As with him, there is some benefit the general tone of what you say but this “wake up call” is unfocused and ranting. It would be less exciting but more accurate to simply preach that people should live within their means and save. As someone who subscribes to (and lives) this philosophy, I would endorse this. Though, as with this, I would not find the thread terribly interesting.
The escrows I have right now are all people striving to live within their means and to be prudent about their decisions. I have new buyers who have a cap of 200k (thus keeping expenses equivalent to their current rental costs). I have cash buyers who are looking at designer places because they have scads of money and can afford it.
While it is always true that things could get worse, your shrill discussions of “reality” seem ironically titled.
