Participant[quote=Dougie944]I have been a massive saver most of my life. Around 40% of my gross income on average.
I have found myself spending more money than normal over the last 6 months while taking advantage of pretty big deals.
Maybe there are more savers out there doing the same.

Good for you, Dougie, that’s great.
(No sarcasm. Really. Wish I’d done that.)

Participant[quote=scaredycat]take alook at those grpahs from the depression. right after the crash in 1929 there was a pretty steep rebound. bear traps suck you back in. the old way of doing business is over. the consumers are not going to consume oour way out of it. there will be profits in the future, but it wont be the way it happened before. the dow will hit 5,000 within the next 30 months.[/quote]
Don’t say that. One of my small pleasures of late is checking my 401(k)’s numbers after work. I’m back to maybe 80 percent stock exposure. (I’m still closer – in age – to 30 than 35).

ParticipantAssuming you’re not being sarcastic, why would you offer well above the high end of the range? To join the legend of RE tools out there trying to close a house before they’re priced out forever?
That house is blah city, too.
