ParticipantUnder the guidance of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, the Tibet Fund was founded in 1981 to help Tibetans improve their lives and preserve their distinct cultural, religious and national identity.
“All major religious traditions carry basically the same message, that is love, compassion and forgiveness the important thing is they should be part of our daily lives.”

– Dalai LamaParticipantThis reminds me of the RE slogan in so cal in the early 1990’s ?
“Stay Alive until ’95”They weren’t far off, just two years early that time.
This time it’s likely to be …
“Don’t be late for 2008”
or
“Houses will shine by 2009”
or
“Up again in 2010”or even, just maybe
“Real estate heaven in 2011”

Come on admit it, there has to be something wrong with the place. No traffic, no wildfires, no earthquakes to speak of, no crime, no grafitti, no bubble. Is it boring there ?Participantsteveno –

(Just maybe not as often as they happen). It’s a good idea to review current conditions every 3-6 months, re-think the logic and re-do the math. If a housing bull assumed that prices rise 12% per year and get it stuck in their head, they may be in trouble now. Conversely, if a housing bear assumes that prices will drop 40% from the peak and get that stuck in their head, they might miss the fact that by 2010 inflation will have already eaten up 15-20% and the 20% nominal price drop is the bottom. (the preceding numbers were for purposes of illustration and not an actual prediction… well, unless it actually happens that way).Knowledge comes from questioning your assumptions.
