Yeah plenty of people neglect to turn on their headlights in hazardous conditions. But I think that’s a result of too many “safety” features in modern cars! Think about it … if you have daytime running lamps AND automatic dash illumination, you have no unambiguous visual cues to remind you to turn on your headlights! You can still see the instrument panel, and there’s just enough light ahead so you can kinda see the road.

I noticed the automatic dash illumination thing when I was a teenager in my friend’s 1985 Grand Am. Made it impossible to convince him that he’d forgotten to turn on the headlights. The other problem was that the steering wheel blocked the view of the speedometer between 30 mph and 80 mph due to crappy design. Likewise made it impossible to convince him that he had to slow down on winding roads.

“Lighting up” in daytime has a small but measurable effect on fuel economy, and reduces the life span of your headlight bulbs … which can lead to them crapping out at night when you actually need them.

Apparently he bought the house shortly after becoming president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York … annual salary $398K according to Wikipedia. So the house cost roughly 4x his annual salary.

As for family … Geithner’s father worked/works for the Ford Foundation. Just don’t make the mistake of thinking that senior managers of nonprofit organizations don’t make damn good money, even as they ask other people to work for nothing 🙂

I feel your pain, as I feel your ass-kicking frustration. This was my one big chance in life to be right, and sometimes I think if I blow this one, the rest of my life is shot.

The sudden spike in interest rates may kill some deals and cool the frenzy a bit.

But at the low end, wait too long and someday you may envy even the knife-catchers of ’08 …
