Why not go to the south of spain or portigal, or France or Greece or Italy if you are looking for weather? Why fly half way across the world for the same thing? (I have been in all of the above persoally, it isnt that different weather wise. Culturally sure, but not weather.)

Why fly within Europe when they can come here and get the “rubber glove” treatment from the TSA gangstaz and the “Jack Bauer” treatment from our customs and immigration staff? Why spend $100 euro on Ryanair tickets for a 2 hour flight to south of France or Spain where you can see topless beauties when you can spend $600 euro to fly to San Diego and hang out with drunken thugs and their chubby girlfriends from Alabama in PB? I mean it’s really a no-brainer. Don’t get me wrong, I love this place but as a tourist destination for anyone outside of the US I don’t really get it. It’s just too far away and too much of a hassle. A lot of euros do come here though, I see them all the time. You can spot them because they’re the ones that aren’t wearing Chargers jerseys 3 times too big for them or walking around with a Double Gulp from 7-Eleven in each hand…

I think it is a great time for you to buy a downtown condo. Why limit it to $300K? Or maybe buy two at that price! I’m sure the neighbors around your new place will love you for providing them with an endless stream of European tourists to interact with. Some of the negative nellies on this board will try to scare you with tales of bankrupt HOAs, but don’t let them discourage you. They’re just jealous bitter renters. There’s never been a better time to buy a downtown condo!

Someone is doing well, I just got back from the San Diego boat show where someone was purchasing an $800,000 Island Packet sailboat – well that’s what the sales people were saying.

I say BS

It is probably true — drug dealers and financial criminals always have plenty of money, and there are a lot of both in Southern California.

Yeah, it is silly that they ask for all that stuff when in the worst case they could never get it. My guess is that in the good old days of responsible mortgage lending, one’s retirement account balance showed how “serious” the borrower was. If someone who’s trying to purchase a home doesn’t have anything saved for retirement, they’re probably not very responsible. Of course in the last few years anyone that could fog a mirror could get a loan, but I think we’re heading back to the old standards before much longer.

Also there will be the feeling among borrowers that “my retirement is half what it used to be” which will make them (if they’re responsible anyway) a bit reticent about stretching to purchase a home.
