What Piggs are thankful for in 2007?

[The OC Scam]

This year I’m thankful for 28% price declines in my neighborhood, brown lawns, owning a cheap economy car and the call from a loan officer that their Stated income 2nd loan program had expired Monday!!!

Thank you Alan G

[Portlock]

I’m thankful I didn’t purchase in the face of frenetic hype, that here I have a group of cool, level heads I can hear from, and my future home is something to look forward to.

I’m thankful for the internet (thanks Al) and blogosphere where the average citizen can find the truth on any subject (housing, finance, etc) as long as he/she is willing to filter out the occasional comment from a troll.

I was just thinking about this the other day…

Sure we’re thankful for the usual, a healthy kid, good job, etc. But what really gives me fits is how close we came to being trapped in our house and losing the 20% we’d put down on it in 2004.

So thanks to everyone on this site, Ben Jones’ site, BMIT and others that gave me a “schoolin'” back in Feb. 2006 and allowed us to get ahead of the curve and sell our place.

Also, thanks to someone on this site (was it JWM or TG? I can’t find the post) who mentioned shills on e-bay. I’d never known that sellers have the ability to drive up bids in those last seconds via other identities, but I’d read about it here just prior to bidding on a Transformer’s Optimus Prime toy for my daughter and when “someone” kept outbidding me I just dropped it and gave up…Next day I got a “Second Chance” e-mail indicating the winning bidder was unable to complete the transaction. Poo-poo Head!

Please tell me none of you are getting up at the Butt-Crack of Dawn to line up at Best Buy…My brain hurts from all the early sale hype. All Piggs should stay in bed tomorrow and count their cash (since we all know it’s sewn into our mattresses).

Happy Food Coma Day to all…

I am thankful that I live in a country where I am allowed to express my opinions and criticize people, organizazions, companies or government agencies, regardless if my opinion is wrong. Where I fell safe in my home and can generally look back and see that I was blessed to have been born in this country and even better, in this part of this country. Visit another country with your child, or even another state and listen to their reaction, it is an education to see their analysis when they realize that traffic, weight loss or breast size that we obsess over (myself included), are so trivial as compared to the worries of the rest of the planet’s population. I have so many people to thank in the past and the present that I won’t even try but I always stop what I’m doing when I meet a war veteran to thank them, especially WWII veterans because the opportunities to thank them are diminishing with each passing day.

And thank the rest of you out there, even those I may argue with, it’s my world and since you are living in it, having a discussion or a debate furthers my own knowledge base. You all have some piece of information that I need for my journey, thanks for posting it for free.

doublewide, it wasn’t me who mentioned the e-bay tactics but I will concur that some sellers try to sniff out your maximum bid with alternative profiles amnongst other tactics. Just send them an e-mail back offering your original bid, not your maximum and see what they do. Currently I’m in a two person bidding war for a Burberry trench coat and I am sure that the other person is the seller. They don’t realize that I’m an important person on their journey and I am about to begin the lesson.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

I was just thinking about this the other day…

Sure we’re thankful for the usual, a healthy kid, good job, etc. But what really gives me fits is how close we came to being trapped in our house and losing the 20% we’d put down on it in 2004.

So thanks to everyone on this site, Ben Jones’ site, BMIT and others that gave me a “schoolin'” back in Feb. 2006 and allowed us to get ahead of the curve and sell our place.

Also, thanks to someone on this site (was it JWM or TG? I can’t find the post) who mentioned shills on e-bay. I’d never known that sellers have the ability to drive up bids in those last seconds via other identities, but I’d read about it here just prior to bidding on a Transformer’s Optimus Prime toy for my daughter and when “someone” kept outbidding me I just dropped it and gave up…Next day I got a “Second Chance” e-mail indicating the winning bidder was unable to complete the transaction. Poo-poo Head!

Please tell me none of you are getting up at the Butt-Crack of Dawn to line up at Best Buy…My brain hurts from all the early sale hype. All Piggs should stay in bed tomorrow and count their cash (since we all know it’s sewn into our mattresses).

Happy Food Coma Day to all…

Same from me as nccoastalseller. Having lost quite a bit in the dot bomb implosion (in spite of my conservative style – I was a knife catcher as a “value investor”), I am very thankful for this alternate medium. I discovered Piggington after I decided to sell, but it has convinced me very well on why not to buy. So I am thankful to the Internet for my financial solvency.

[patb]

i’m thankful i have a house in the midwest with a 5.625% fixed mortgage

I’m thankful i listened to the Piggingtons and didn’t go buy a condo in
DC in 2005/2006.

i’m grateful to the piggs for encouraging me to liquidate my stock positions
early this year.

I’m 80% cash.

I’m just sorry none of the piggs talked up Euro moneymarket funds,
i’ve been getting my ass poounded as the dollar caves.

to be brief, I am grateful to Rich and the people on this site who brought the real truth of the housing “bubble” to light and to the friends and family I have who will not eat turkey on Thanksgiving.

[NotCranky]

“to the friends and family I have who will not eat turkey on Thanksgiving.”

I have seen and heard the turkeys are kinda skinny this year anyway.

I am greatful for the regular stuff that I am greatful for everyday. I am greatful that Stuart Smalley showed me the way when I was just a young Rustico.

I am greatful no one in my family, including yours truly, knows where Best Buy is…or cares.

Best wishes
