ParticipantMy level of risk aversion has reached another all time high today.
Hunker down folks
I’m amassing sizable cash reserve to jump back in the housing market next year. All right, all right….many will say that is too early, you are likely right. I am getting a bit sick of renting, now I’m getting concerned that my landlord will go into foreclosure.
I have enough reserves now to take a equity hit for a couple years, and ride out this downturn.

January 24, 2009 at 5:24 AM #334602ParticipantWanted to update Pigg folks where I am.
A number of other Piggs have recently pulled the house purchase trigger. I’m approaching decision soon.
Very active now, put a few low-ball offers already in South Carlsbad area. 4BR newer, CBad schools, nice large yard, are criteria.
Planning to put sizable 25-30% downpayment down, lock in a conforming 30yr fixed.
Will keep you updated on how it goes.

February 15, 2009 at 10:44 AM #346579ParticipantPosted on a separate thread, I’m actively looking for “stock bargains”
Which companies are best positioned to weather and even thrive in major down turn, or a depression. An interesting article in Wall street Journal.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB12345625…
Although I’m very heavy on gold (via ETFs) and nearly all cash in FDIC insured institutions, I’m currently scoping out equities in companies best positioned to weather this.
Looks the the “cheap sin” industries do well. Although unfortunately personally I have a bit of a moral and ethical hurdle to cross before I invest in tobacco, alcohol, etc. Logging of all industries did very well during last the depression.

ParticipantGold mining companies that are producing at this time are now very profitable. This should continue for some time. Demand is strong and costs are very low for them. What other industry can say this besides food?
