Most Reliable Housing Forecast?

[PerryChase]

My mom told me it’s never polite to talk about money. Wealth is relative. The more wealth on has, the less one should discuss it.

Certainly, powayseller didn’t got to finishing school. But she’s entertaining.

But who cares who’s right or who’s wrong? Live and let live. Do what’s right for you and take satisfaction in that.

Wow, this thread has been interesting! Now PS can add the host to the list of people she’s badgered into submission. I was done with her months ago – she’s one of those people that just won’t stop, and just doesn’t “get it” or understand how normal people have normal conversations or debates.

Here’s a classic Powayseller “debate” where she attempts to convince someone of something.

Person: “I think X is the case, because of Y”

PS: “Please allow me to convince you otherwise. First, anyone that believes X is the case because of Y is a complete idiot. Second, here are 400 cherry-picked links that prove my case. Third, did I mention that I’m smarter than you?”

Person: “Whatever, I’m done with this.”

PS: “Therefore, I have won! I’m the best! I rule! I win I win I win I win!”

Person: “You’re annoying”

PS: “No need to get offended, I simply asked for 400 links like I provided to you. If you cannot do so, I win by default. Those are the rules.”

Person: “I’m leaving this website”.

I think ChrisJ was the last person she ran off the site, although someone else assisted her in that particular event.

Rich, thanks for setting up this site – it’s been very educational. Oh, and please send your last 10 tax returns and all bank account information to my anonymous mailbox. You’re a public figure (much like Tom Cruise, without the sofa bouncing skills) and so I demand a piece of you.

Had hoped to get some good econo-housing discussion going, but this thread has turned into a band-wagon bashing session. Rich, could you do some technical thing here and change the title of this thread to “PS Sucks” and let everyone who has been wanting to vent, get it out of their system? That way the rest of us who are interested in discussing housing issues can start our own thread. This one has gotten boring. Late.

It’s possible that there is simply less interest in the original intent of the thread and so posters like myself, in the absence of effective forum-police, simply talk about what we want to talk about.

If someone wanted to start a “PS Sucks” thread then I’m sure it would have been started in the “off-topic” area, but that’s just not how it happened this time.

cm, that’s a hilarious — but accurate, it seems to me — lay out of the typical argument progression with ps.

Irritating as heck, dealing with a hectoring person.

After reviewing some of the pertinent discussion several pages back, I’ve taken another look at Robert Campbell’s market calls. I have come to the conclusion that his buy signals look pretty good in retrospect and are usually either close to the bottoms or at least far enough from the peaks to make out pretty well.

My initial thoughts (prior to actually reading his book) : for a simple method for timing : Buy when Campbell says to buy …
… and never sell.

Can we get back to the original post ?? It appears to me that the best person to follow is “yourself.” You need to get educated through a variety of sources, get an understand of what the market is doing and where the trend may be going. It would be imprudent to just blindly follow someone else’s guidance (which could be completely wrong). Sorry, blind stupidity is not allowed . . . okay, maybe it is permitted, but at your own peril. That’s a perfect example of our society, do as others say, . . . then blame the others for failure. Isn’t that what got us into this bubble in the first place?

I agree 100% Daisy.

Darn, if we were stayed off topic then after all this the most obvious main question still can be asked;
Is ps a hot babe or not?

Kidding!
