ParticipantI forget the specifics, but as I recall, mainstream recognition of a Recession and mention in the media is typically an indicator that the worst is over, and a bottom has hit. Basically, I think we’re in a recession now, and we haven’t hit bottom yet; once the media and average american catches on, it will be a sign that things are improving.
I agree that aggressively cutting taxes right now would be fiscally reckless unless accompanied by cuts to defense and social security.

ParticipantIn life ugly people usually have to work harder for what they get. So yeah, you’d probably have a better experience overall with a less attractive realtor.

ParticipantYeah, I was a kid in the 80s, and I remember having a savings account and making a ridiculous rate compared to what I’ve seen in my adulthood.
It’s unfortunate that the political climate makes it virtually impossible to follow the rational path regarding interest rates and home prices. Hopefully the effects won’t be too catastrophic.

ParticipantThe nails were hit pretty well on the head by previous posters. Don’t take TV programs aimed to entertain at face value. For every Michael Phelps there are thousands of mediocre swimmers out there, yet you wouldn’t know it from casual media coverage.
Someone with brains, drive and charisma *can* make millions of dollars in real estate, even at a young age. But such a combination is rare, assuming it is legit.
