ParticipantArgentina seized pensions a couple years ago, no? And Team Obama seized the value from GM bond holders, yes? And the “conservative” Supreme Court OK’ed the Kelo decision, no? State of CA seizes the contents of bank safety deposit boxes after some ridiculously short period of no access, yes? Seizing appears to be an approved meme among govt folk. And it has precedent, FDR seized private gold.
An elder relative, a wise man, has been telling me for years to avoid govt constrained pension plans (401K, IRA, etc). He says “take the tax hit up front, put it in real property, preferably out of the country.” I.e., US Feds probably won’t seize your foreign acreage. Just hold it, and sell when you need the cash, with no silly age requirements.

ParticipantWow. I have no numbers, but that seems ~2001 price level. (Wise Piggs, how to check “price level”, i.e., peg it to a year?)
Loma Portal in general has two issues that annoy me:
1) Airplane NOISE that will rattle the fillings out of your teeth.
2) Many 4-way intersections with no stop signs. Almost got hit on a bike there, now I just steer clear.That said, this could be a nice deal, depending on rehab costs. From the redfin listing: “…bring this 1930’s Art Deco back to its glory days or scrape and build new. This home needs everything!…”
