ParticipantCorr. just 1.24 or 1.25 AC. (I’ve seen differing reports.) Read some more stories on the internet to refresh my memory. Brown was exceptionally smart and successful, but obviously was not used to dealing with the parochial-type mentality of the community, compared to the Bay area where she was from. Comm. groups formed for the purpose of distributing petitions against her DID sue her over an early supposed 41-bed “proposed” plan, but later dropped the case (other rpts. say she won or it was dismissed). Can’t tell which b/c there is no online register of actions for a case that old.
All the “signature-gathering” by the comm. group did no good as Brown didn’t violate any laws.
Can’t tell if a bus. permit was issued and then reneged on – differing accounts.
The neighbor-angst ultimately drove away her venture capital and Deepak Chopra, who was to run it as “Casa Simpatico.” When she later tried to rent her six token rooms by herself that she was allowed to without the business permit, she couldn’t make ends meet with the mortgage. Nevertheless she maintained the property until she left last year `even programming the rose garden to water itself, with a computer program she invented.’ Fascinating stories . . .
Even City of Enc. is quoted as saying the structure was built exactly as they themselves approved it.
It appears she put much more than $2M of her own cash into it. I still feel a little sorry for her.

ParticipantUCGal, great research.
24% of all the privately-owned housing stock in SD County is owned free and clear.
The median income used to maintain this stock is $48K (prob. does not incl. ret. assets, if owned). Although not all free/clear owners have this low of an income, $48K is a lower MC income.
It supports what I’ve always believed. Thank you.

Participant[quote=AN]Me, defensive? Nah, it all fun and game for me. I just find it funny when people get snobby and look down on others based on their prejudices.[/quote] Again, you are hogging the thread and boring Pigg readers by your incessant defensive badgering. If you already “know all the answers,” then why are you asking??
You may infer whatever you like about me. I have lived in and and also owned rental units for past 32 years in dtn. SD, City Heights, SE San Diego, PH, Bonita and CV. None of these areas are upper MC except for Bonita. I did not inherit any of it.
[quote=AN]Did I say 1994 is the bottom and 2004 is the top?[/quote] Yes, reread your posts again.
[quote=AN]You seemed to glazed over the tract home in Solana beach I brought up.[/quote]I was unable to open the link you provided.
[quote-AN]Are you trying to say once you get fired, you active income is done and gone?[/quote]Yes, if one is over the age of 55, and sometimes 50 and loses a long-time position with benefits through layoff, firing, RIF or “golden handshake,” then the chances of them having to contract their services or consult for a living after that are very great in this economy. I don’t know how old you are, but age discrimination is rampant, particularly in small business. I myself “retired” over a decade ago and have a pension but still work, albeit not full time unless I have a big project. In that case, I put in many hours “overtime.”
[quote=AN]Why don’t you tell us more about you other missed opportunity. It’s much more interesting than my lower MC home.[/quote]Again, OT and you did not answer my question. Did you make a profit??
AN, may I suggest to you that if you have any more questions as to how the world works, you ask another Pigg whom you feel is more qualified than me to answer them.
