ParticipantHWG –
Below is a link to Chris’ blog. Up until a couple days ago he was not blogging much, something to do with internet access at his new place in the boondocks. He has not yet exited stocks, but appears to be on the edge of his seat …
ParticipantActually, some countries with fairly strong economies recently cut interest rates, as their currencies are very strong.
HWG, They’ve actually been raising rates in the Euro zone and elsewhere.
Per CNN …
NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) — Interest rates are ticking higher overseas, raising concerns on Wall Street that U.S. rates will be pulled up along with them – but that may not necessarily be the case.
From Canada to England to Japan, central banks around the world have been raising rates amid growing concerns about inflation.

ParticipantThanks PD. I guess that also applies to post-college roomies as well. Now I get it, duh!

ParticipantThat family and household thing has me perplexed as well. It’s a 17% difference, and Family income is higher than household. Here are the Census Bureau’s definition of family and household.
Family
A group of two or more people who reside together and who are related by birth, marriage, or adoption.Household
A household includes all the people who occupy a housing unit as their usual place of residence.If household income were higher than family income I would get it. BUT, family income is somehow higher than household income.
So, riddle me this : How can a group of related people reside together, but not occupy the same housing unit ?

Participantoops, while I was preparing a response you answered my question regarding your moniker. I hope it wasn’t too personal a question.

ParticipantHere’s a less-intrusive way to ask.
According to the US Census Bureau, the following are the median income levels in San Diego County for 2005 (in 2005 dollars) :
Per capita income : 28,329
Median Household Income: 56,335
Median Family Income : 66,178Please answer the following:
1. Is your family income greater than or less than the median ?
2. Is your household income greater or less than the median ?
3. Is your per capita income less than or greater than the median ?
By the way, just curious …
Is your moniker intended to encourage the use of a certain brand of prophylactics to avoid life-threatening disease, or are you a USC grad ?ParticipantHere’s a less-intrusive way to ask.

When the other shoes drop in June, then July, then August, then September, Oct, Nov and December we will find out that the housing market had eight legs and ls2008 won’t be able to gloat.
