There is so much bs on this board, “both my kids are gifted” Puke. Does anybody think their kids are retarted? I think most post to impress, I just keep making money. lol
Our Son chose Baylor, it had very little, if anything to do with its Religous affiliation. Did you know that 50,000 HS Seniors last year applied to SDSU! We could have sent our son to many public U’s in CA, but for almost the same cost are sending him to a private school in TX. Baylor has a great reputation, 13k undergrads, beautiful campus, etc. My wifes side of the family also owns land north of Waco, Kerens, TX, farmland, and lakefront property. Our daughter, HS junior, is planning on going to either Baylor or TCU for a nursing degree. We also plan to relocate to TX when the time is right, I think it is a better place overall for college grads to start their careers.
Quick history on myself- Bought first home in La Crescenta in 86 for 135k, sold for 247k in 1990, bought in Valencia 287k 1990 and sold for 715k 9/05.
I feel that the market is the next mini bubble, it may not last long but where else are the masses going to look for the quick buck? So I am going to ride it as fas as I can, granted most of my money is in CD’s and T-Bills. When will I get out? I don’t know, hopefully before it tanks. Could this board, including myself, be thinking too small, meaning housing will tank but the stock market and other parts of the economy will prosper? Just a hunch and nothing more. But so far so good.
