Participantparamount, I wasn’t speaking about me specifically, but as a member of a group that most of us fall into. It’s O.K., we all know you hate me. You think I’m not who I represent myself to be. Over 20 pigs know me in real life, most of them active posters, some for a very long time, long before piggington. I will be glad to have a beer with you to convince you, we live only 2 miles apart, if obama can call a beer summit, I can pick up the tab for a few at killarneys on some random weeknight. We’ve got at least 10 locals on the board, maybe the beer summit should include a the rest of the rancho cal mafia, and maybe I need protection.
I’m just kidding with you about the hate, but I can gurantee that the dos equis guy has got nothing on me, he lives vicariously through me.

ParticipantA drop in the bucket and a diversion from the real issue, one that Tony Vilar (aka viallarigosa, who took his ex wife’s name to sound more hispanic) loves to champion while leading the charge for illegal immigrant health care and pay. I don’t hate illegal aliens, I just think the burden should be shared by the rest of the country and it’s not just illegals, the real problem is our citizen non workers.
The real issue is, the one that doesn’t get the ire or the press is money for the poor, lots of them. California gives more in benefits to those that don’t work than any other place and they migrate here.
33% of all welfare recipients in the united states live in California, yet only 11% of the polulation lives here. Read that again, every third person on the dole in a country of a few hundred million is being supported by you. They didn’t all start here, they come here, from other states and countries because we give more, in education, health care, free rent in a fantastic climate and money to boot. All other states have a percentage that matches their percentage of the total population or less, california has three fold. If you are going to be on the dole, might as well do it in the sunshine.
Yet they distract you with anectodotal stories of fireman and lifeguards, why? If every pension was eliminated, every prison and court closed and everyone fired, every fire station eliminated and sold off and if all the police were volunteers, it would correct the problem. Attacking easy targets makes you feel good, running off poor people, sending them back to their home state, makes you feel bad and makes the politicos look hearltess.
But if it makes you feel better, have fun.

February 19, 2010 at 10:01 PM in reply to: Shall we buy or never in San Diego or wait for more depreciation? #515460ParticipantYou are right AN, the multipler goes up with the sfr’s and the sq feet. A 2k rent sfr up here is 300-350k right now, it was 260-300k a year ago. So it was 150x and below, now it’s crept above that, but it’s still close. Big sfr’s aren’t good rentals, I just use the numbers for comparisons to value.
The example I used dropped from 400k to 150k, so 55-70% from peak isn’t impossible, it happened. It may not happen in your town, it may not happen again, but it happened.

ParticipantBTW, no offense, but that is a pretty overdone story. I think we geeks who rode out the bubble in rentals and resisted peer pressure and stigma because we are math geeks, we are a much more interesting story for the PBS demographic. Actually, we are the PBS demographic, nevermind.
