Who were the fools who signed without reading? I bet it’s more likely the uneducated folks.

The entire closing process is designed to keep you from reading the papers or having a chance to get them reviewed.

Your loan docs arrive with just enough time to skim, sign, and FedEx off just in time to meet the closing deadline — this is no accident.

I know highly educated and financially astute people who got screwed by people they trusted. (I also believe that trusting “your own people,” whomever those people might be, leaves you wide-open to affinity fraud … but that’s a subject for another thread.)

And things may have changed in the decades since land reform, but for my parents’ generation the thought of being a landless peasant (or its contemporary incarnation, the jealous bitter renter) filled one with dread and horror.

Indeed O.C. real estate “advisor” Gary Watts exploited this fear in his notorious “inverted year” report, exhorting his readers to buy now now now now now lest their descendants end up in perpetual serfdom. I think he specifically cited India.

First it is not that people are misers or non-misers. It is that people see value in different things. Some people do not see any value is driving a BMW or in going out and spending 20 dollars on a dinner. They get much more enjoyment out of staying in a nice home and cooking a meal and sending their kids to a certain school. It is a matter of preference.

Where can you get dinner for $20 p.p. incl. tax/tip/beverage that doesn’t come out of a deep fryer?

I say pay it, document it, wait until you have your deposit back, then take them to small claims court.

Don’t give them an extra incentive to screw you while they still have the means to do so.
