4th Quarter Meet-Up

[lindismith]

Hi All,

Have been swamped at work, so not posting much recently, but managing to read every now and then. Love some of the new posters!

Anyway, am thinking it might be time to schedule another meet-up.

How does November 18th sound? It’s a Saturday. 4pm. I’m thinking same place as last time, or we can change it. I guess if people have ideas, post them. A bar might be good. That way we could mix it up a little. Downtown could be good too because I’m not sure everyone’s seen all the CRANES!

Our last meet-up over the Summer was good – about 25 people showed up. It was in Encinitas.

Also, I was thinking it might be funny to print up some Pigginton t-shirts for all of us Piggingtonians. What do you think, Rich?

If you guys like the idea, let me know, and I’ll look into it.

Maybe submit slogans for the tees in your post when you RSVP if you’re coming. We can vote on the one we like best. In the meantime, I’ll work on getting some pricing.

Belinda.

Nov 18 is good. I’ll be wearing my Housing Bubble t-shirt, and will be happy to get another Piggington shirt to wear on alternate days/open houses.

“Rich Keeps Us Rich”

Coming

“Piggingtonian” or

“San Diego housing bubble site
piggington.com”

I didn't go to the first one, so I'd like to try to make it to this one. Encinitas works great for me. T-shirt slogan? Here are some examples:

Piggington.com
In God We Trust,
Everyone Else Bring Data.

Piggington.com
A Realtor's worst nightmare.

Piggington.com
Opiate for the bubble sitters.

Piggington.com
How's your ARM feeling now?

Piggington.com
Homeowners, you can't say you weren't warned.

Greek, that opiate one’s very good!

[Chrispy]

Instead of Piggington: A Realtor’s Worst Nightmare… how about The Housing Industry’s Worst Nightmare?

Why should mortgage brokers, bankers, crooked appraisers, builders, etc be left out of the fun?

What’s up guys, Belinda, thanks for taking charge of this. I have totally slacked in organizing another 🙂

The last one was very informative, I will definitely be at the next one. You all are always welcome back at the resteraunt, if you want to try a bar that’s great too!

Thanks,
Shane

Even though I’m not a great contributor like most of you, if I can arrange it, I’ll hitch hike down from SF.

Oh, and save me a T-Shirt.

I think anyone coming to the event should bring either

(1) Most outrageous real estate advertisement (outrageous claim, false promise, misleading financing claim, etc.), or

(2) The most rosy-eyed real estate article from the business section of a major newspaper.

Just for fun sake, dig up some old “sky is the limit” articles from a year back.

Not sure if I can make it, as I am in L.A., but I enjoy reading all of the posts and discussions.

Anybody have access to one of those 1-800-ASK-TROY billboards? You know, the 30-ish used car salesman turned loan officer whose face was plastered all over San Diego?

Yeah – I would trust him with my money. He looked like someone you’d pick up at the beach, not a banker.

[saiine]

Sounds fun, but none of those bright yellow “REAL ESTATE INVESTOR SEEKS APPRENTICE, 20K PER MONTH” signs haha

I’d like to come since I missed the last one. But is it possible to move it to early November? I have relatives visiting on the 11/18 weekend.

[lindismith]

ybc, I guess we could move it, but you’re asking a lot of people to move for you. Can’t you get away for just 2 hours that Saturday? Work with us here.

Y’all (I’m a Texan) must be a bunch of single folks/DINKs to select a bar as a venue. I’ve got a wife and kids, and while I enjoy helping my kids pester their politically-correct teachers with bubble gum cigarettes, I can’t drag the family to a downtown bar on a Saturday evening and actually tacitly encourage smoking and drinking! But, sounds like fun!
