The-Shoveler
ParticipantYep,
Not saying it should not have been done before, just saying he might actually do it and get away with it sort of like Reagan.
What was it Reagan used to say, the nation debt is big enough to take care of itself LOL.
Anyway we really need to fix stuff, maybe add some metro trains, the High Speed rail is just a complete waste however IMO, they should put it up (High Speed rail) for another vote and see how popular it would be now!! LOL.
I bet it would be defeated soundly.
ParticipantIMO defects are meaningless
Well OK maybe they mean a little but there is no way they will ever be paid off in today’s dollars.
At some point I think they will either inflate it away or give up print a few trillion dollar coins.
ParticipantYep, kind of looks like the 2000 blow off a little,
But I think the main difference is the record amount of money sitting on the side lines.
Maybe the market is pricing in all that infrastructure spending.
Not saying it is going to happen but what if after 4 years the DOW is at 35K etc…?

February 13, 2017 at 10:58 AM in reply to: Rural Urban Divide, Millennial Lifestyles & City of the Future #805537ParticipantI don’t remember ever seeing American beauty, maybe I never saw it, really don’t know what Connecticut has going for it.
Most of the north east other than NY-City has been losing population for a while now (moving south for the most part).
The property tax system seems set up to force you to move to Florida before you retire LOL.
You have to be fairly rich to retire in NY (especially the city) not sure about Boston or MA, never hear much about it.
February 13, 2017 at 10:29 AM in reply to: Rural Urban Divide, Millennial Lifestyles & City of the Future #805533ParticipantIMO Urban core revival is way over hyped.
It’s OK in you early 20’s before you have kids etc…
Then you have your first kid and you realize it’s not going to work.
They really want to move to the burb’s.

February 13, 2017 at 9:36 AM in reply to: Rural Urban Divide, Millennial Lifestyles & City of the Future #805530ParticipantI have spent quite a bit of time in Boston (mostly during the 90’s).
It is a lot like LA in some regards where the suburbs are actually fairly large cities in their own right and most of the companies are actually in the burbs not in Boston proper.
Spent most of my time in places like newton etc…

There is a lot more on this but it is history at this point so I don’t want to keep it going,
We were Robbed , enough said.

If Clinton had won she almost certainly would have started world war three by instating a no fly zone in Syria.
Well it would have been over in a few days.
She was just as dangerous but the establishment would have bought it LOL.
February 8, 2017 at 3:28 PM in reply to: Rural Urban Divide, Millennial Lifestyles & City of the Future #805426ParticipantSanders understood this, the Dem’s establishment centered mind set just could not (would not) run an honest election so we got Trump.
Had the Dem’s run an honest election and nominated Sanders, Sanders would have won.
Of course a lot of the establishment (drug and insurance companies and Banks etc..) would be just as unhappy with Sanders.
ParticipantDemographic’s
IMO have a much larger role even more so than the economy, interest rates etc… for housing and markets in general.
like in the mid/late 80’s you had the largest bulge of the population reaching their late 20’s, the same thing is happening again with the current generation.
ParticipantCall it a managed economy or what ever, but the China Gov knows it must keep the housing/condo bubble going else instability etc…
Only the Americans are stupid enough to let their market collapse.
You will notice the Canadians and most of Europe did not suffer that etc..
Also you need to remember in China the Gov IS THE BANK.
Anyway IMO.

I’m not trying to bust anyone’s chop here. Just trying to understand what the heck is the difference between someone calling “top” 2 months ago and getting out for the sake of asset protection “just in case” something bad happens, and someone calling “top” right now, with the exception that one of us guessed right?I don’t get it.[/quote]
It’s Rigged against us market timers LOL!!
I have been mostly out of the market for several years just due to the fact I am too close to retirement to be risk on.
If I was in my 30-40’s I would just keep adding to my 401K index fund and keep my nose to the grind stone, try not to look at the market.
IMO Just looking at the demographics I think we are going to be in good times for a few more years at least, but there are no guarantee’s that something crazy is not going to happen.
Participant[quote=flu]
I know, I know..IT’S ALL RIGGED!!!![/quote]Yep I am going with that, never been able to do well in the Stock market except index fund buy and hold 401K but even that I pulled out of last year (too Old need to be in preservation mode).
But One Day, One Day I will beat them dang it LOL.
Anyway I might go back in if we get a 35-40% crash but I don’t see that occurring unless war or some other disaster, Hard to predict with Trump, could be really really good or really really bad I have no clue.
