I am not bitter and am quite joyous about being 0% real estate.
But I am deeply concerned about how this situation is unfolding. When I started researching it in April ’06, I quite thought I would be buying a house here in SD in 2007. Now I think 2012, and in telling my daughters how WWII originated in the Great Depression, I realized how perilous economic malaise is. Societies do all kinds of stupid things during such periods; I just hope we don’t bring dictators to power in the next years.
I find it very hard to resist that bottle of vodka in my liquor cabinet.
By the way, I am looking for a phat rental (4-5 BR, Rich’s dream house?!?) in Carmel Valley and vicinity beginning June ’07. Anyone feel like sending tips my way, let me know.

January 8, 2008 at 8:49 PM #132281kewpParticipantI made a prediction last summer that CW would be bankrupt by Feb 08, so I’m at a 2 right now. I’ll go to 1 if that comes true. As a systems analyst, nothing makes me happier than being right.
I’ll second that its kinda hard to be jubilant about all this mess, though. Crime is going to go way up for one thing. Its what happens when a million kids raised as hyper-consumers end up in the middle of depression 2.0.
I thought I was being clever by working for the UC system, thinking we would be mostly insulated from this. Turns out we are getting dinged by falling property tax revenue and credit for student loans is drying up.

January 8, 2008 at 9:30 PM #132316NavydocParticipantDefinitely a 1. Not necessarily because of the market just yet, but because I became a Dad for the first time yesterday. Slightly off topic I know, but I hope in 1 1/2 years I can actually buy my new little girl the home she deserves to grow up in.
By the way, this is why I havn’t posted in a week or so.
