ParticipantDingo/MulitplePersonality,
If you’ve spent any time whatsoever on this forum you’d recognize that about 30% of all the threads and posts don’t involve the RE markets at all, but are about alternative investment vehicles, macroeconomics and general economic trends. I think most of the Piggs are quite cognizant of the collateral damage that will occur as a result of the failures in the RE markets and are actively seeking ways to cope with that damage. I think it’s a huge mistake to confuse these lines of discussion as gloating over the misfortunes of others. Intelligent people learn from the mistakes of others.
It’s true that there is a certain amount of validation involved when the fools who extolled the virtues of being agressive and “bold” during the runup earn the inevitable fruits of that type of reckless and unjustified behavior. I compare it to the type of validation that occurs when we see the jerk who had been terrorizing other motorists on the freeway 5 minutes ago gets pulled over by the CHP.
If you want to scold someone for their misbehavior and bad attitude I suggest you look to the people who created the problem in the first place, not the people who warned everyone from the beginning of the risks they were taking.
We were right, they were wrong; deal with it. If you want to find a caring and nurturing support group for suckas I suggest you look elsewhere, like maybe the San Diego Real Estate Investment Club. There are lots of positive thinkers and RE boosters over there.

ParticipantThere’s a pretty sizable percentage of owners on this forum – people who bought pre-bubble and have little exposure to equity losses. There are a number of other regulars who rent now because they were smart enough to sell while they still had equity.
Whether it’s gloating (your view) or scheming for the next opportunity (our view) is irrelevant. The market isn’t tanking because the subject is under discussion on the various blogs. The subject is under discussion on the various blogs because the market is tanking. Only a moron would think that this market is going down because of negative press.
“Wishing” for the market to tank or wishing for it to not tank is equally effective, which is to say, it’s a complete waste of time. The market will correct because it got distorted and it must correct. Action-reaction. No amount of singing Kumbaya or dancing around a fire and chanting magical incantations is going to change that.
You’d be better off spending your energy dealing with what is than wasting that energy complaining about the people who correctly forecasw this happening before it did.

ParticipantIt’s hard to say what she does or doesn’t know. Consider this – how many Americans get all their news off of the combination of the nightly network newscasts and the entertainment gossip shows that come on before the prime-time sitcoms? They know more about Britney and Paris than about when the next general election is.
