ParticipantI was referring to ‘now the owners get to stay and don’t have to pay a mortgage payment or rent for one or two years.
And just think of the size of the downpayments they’ll have saved up when they finally do get kicked out. We’ll be competing against these people for homes in a couple of years. And you know the banks will loan them money again…
blahblahblah
ParticipantI always liked what George Carlin had to say about the American Dream:
“It’s called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it.”

ParticipantWhat strikes me as being conspicuously absent as of late, is the desire of many Americans to work at all. That’s where this magical thinking comes in. Invest in the internet and make millions! Buy a house and make millions! Stuff envelopes part time in your den and make millions!
Very true Allan. Of course the common man isn’t stupid. He knows that he will never be able to retire. He knows that he’s likely to be laid off at age 50. If he’s a technical person he knows that his job will probably be sent to India. He knows that his insurance company will deny his benefits should he become sick. He knows that social security will be scaled back before he can access it. He knows that unless you’re an “inside man” in some sort of scam industry like finance or real estate, you will have these same worries. His only hopes are to play the lottery or to join the scammers himself. In the very worst, most unlikely case he might do a couple of years in prison for lying on his loan applications or absconding with a bunch of unsecured loan money; however, if he robbed a bank directly he’d be in for life. Better to rob them indirectly.
The system is set up to reward crooks and scammers, not hard working people. Why are we surprised that so many are choosing to engage in crooked behavior (lying on loan applications, etc…) when this system is so obviously tilted in favor of crooks.

ParticipantJust wait until those HOAs start biting the dust. There are going to be a lot of folks that stop paying their fees, and combined with all the empty units, some HOAs are going to get in big trouble fast. I would be very wary especially of the larger buildings because their costs are high. If the elevator breaks and there’s no money in the HOA account to fix it, you might be hoofing it up 15 flights of stairs with your groceries.
