ParticipantBottom Line,
Government data indicates that Americans earned a smaller average income in 2005 than in 2000.
While incomes have been on the rise since 2002, the average income in 2005 was $55,238, still nearly 1% less than in 2000, after adjusting for inflation, an analysis of new tax statistics show.
On the flip side, housing in CA has gone up over 125% or more in the same period of time…….
Nothing more needs to be said here concerning what happens next…..

ParticipantAlex,
If your so confident of your “fantasy” concerning the housing market, put your money where your mouth is on it….let’s see how confident you are…..
If you can’t do this then quit posting on our community and go spend some time in the library educating yourself rather than waste all of our time here.
Or go hang out with the president of the NAR and intoxicate yourself some more with lies or watch CNBC and all the people on there that think SUBPRIME is the worst of it…
You haven’t seen anything yet. Wait until next year when all the OPTION ARMS get recast at CWBC and WAMU.

ParticipantEveryone,
Just for the record, I am not a librarian and I don’t buy all my furniture at Jerome’s. I was trying to make a case for simple and smart living….haha….
Concerning the pressure from the wife post. I truly feel for you my man and can undertand your situation, especially in the midst of the CA lifestyle. Then again, you are the MAN and if you want to let your wife pressure you into stressful financial situations that is your CHOICE again…
I have dated scores of women out here in SD and as soon as I see that they are materialistic or need to keep up with their girl friends concerning this stuff…they are history with me…period. I don’t need that pressure and I don’t put up with a woman controlling me….with this menial stuff.
If you have a roof over your head and food on the table and you can be content with that..then you are a candidate for a wife. If you need designer purses, 100 pairs of shoes, and all the other trappings, then she needs to go find some other guy to support her lifestyle and put up with that bull sh#t.
Men need to take a stand here and teach their wives what is to be TRULY VALUED in this life. Then take them on a vacation to a third world country for a month for a real perspective on things…..

ParticipantCDMA and Gang,
I hate to disappoint everyone here but I would make a terrible politician as I don’t practice the habits of lying to people to get a vote, taking bribes and payoffs from special interest groups, and flattering and kissing people’s asses every day. I call a spade a spade and I value my name above any amount of riches.
A few things here on the threads posted above and below. The Katrina comparison to the morrgage dilemna is a faulty one. It is not even apples to oranges here.
I would certainly agree that the government was lax in their anticipation of this type of event and did not prepare accordingly on some levels. In this case, I feel they should step in and help people in a VERY MONITORED AND ORGANIZED FASHION which they never do…hence the “fleecing of America” stories on the nightly news.
These people had very little control over A HURRICANE STORM and the effects it could have on them. They were warned by the media in the days before the storm to evacuate the area. Some made the decision to do that, some stayed and reaped the conseqences physically, and others?
These people did not sign papers to allow the storm to ravage their home. Big Difference.
All this being said, it is very sad what has happened there and the poor follow up that is taking place to help these people.
The point I am trying to make here is that people have been living way above their means for the last decade and the materialism of this country and the striving to get rich is out of control, hence, the need to reset the values.
AMEX can give me a line of credit, that doesn’t mean that I have to CHOOSE to max it out.
Bank you name it, can offer me a negative amortizing loan to purchase a home that I only use 50% of, but I can CHOOSE not to put myself and family in this situation.
Anyone can give you the gun, you CHOOSE to pull the trigger.
Here is the word of the day “DOWNSIZE”.
