Giving in

[jstoesz]

[quote=desmond]No hard feelings AN, I think it is great to able to own a home that your family can grow up in, I did it with my family. But unlike the words of Rich “Buying at the exact bottom or selling at the exact top shouldn’t even be the goal. If you achieved either of these two, it’s because you got lucky” I sold at the very peak in my area code, 91354, and will buy where I want to buy at the bottom, …….. and it won’t be luck.[/quote]

Desmond, although your confidence is endearing, don’t you think that we may not see prices climb in decades? Isn’t that what has happened in japan?

I am not convinced there will be a any good option going forward for s. california. Like someone previously said…

Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent. So then are you willing to lose gobs of money to own. I may be willing one day, but I feel like this will be a painful and nuanced decision.

Self made and work from home and get to spend all day with my son and wife. Hell. the American Dream is AWESOME![/quote]

Sounds like a real estate infomercial. Do you have silk carpets to sell also?

BTW, did you get some hot chicks before you settled on the one and married her?[/quote]

Actually yes i did! 15-32 was quite a ride! Id elaborate more but another poster called me an ass for explaining the facts of my life. This would just set them over the edge if they knew my past as well.

And to that poster…. Someone was being snarky insulting the idea of the American Dream. So i laid out my facts to prove him wrong. I actually make it a point to not let anyone i know about successes and most have no idea. I dont drive a fancy car and i look and dress just like I did when i was making $500 a week. But here on a forum where people think it seems the hobby of everyone to rain on everyone’s parade I suppose being a dick to prove a point was well worth it.

Next time I will make it a point to not let you know that some people are actually enjoying their lives and working hard to enjoy it.
