At first blush I would agree (maybe a stock broker owns the vehicle), but then I remembered the “classy” part, the stock broker would have at least had enough sense to get his/her H2 in black.

that’s funny. The last plate I saw like that was in 2002. It was GOSP500 – earnings from the stock market bought the car I guess. What’s the next bubble plate? OILER

A year ago I’ve seen a Porsche Cayenne Turbo with license plate HOMSOLD. Presumably it belongs to an investor of a smarter variety.

Just kidding… this dude is most likely a RE or mortgage broker. And a %&$#* gross polluter, no doubt about that!

I am reminded of another vehicle I’ve seen twice in the past around my neck of the woods. It, too, was a bright yellow Hummer H2, and its license plate was “RENVSTR” (“real estate investor,” presumably).

Maybe it is the same person? The RE investing didn’t pan out so they decided to become mortgage brokers in 2006/7 … and they just had to change their vanity plates..

This has nothing to do with
This has nothing to do with real estate but I recall when I was a teenager riding in the car with my father and seeing a couple of long-haired hippie types (not altogether different from myself, I might add) in an old clunker with the vanity plate “BEER RN” (presumably, “beer run”). I remarked to my dad, “Wow, those guys are stupid – putting ‘beer run’ on your vanity plate is just asking for trouble from the cops.” To which my father responded dryly, “Oh, not to worry son, I’m sure that that young man’s last name is Beer and he’s a registered nurse.” That was good ‘ole dad.

Well, those who bought big SUVs are paying for it now.

Today’s paper said that a 3 year old Toyota Sequoia is worth 38% of it’s original purchase price.

GULP!

I just bought a Hummer H3 about three weeks ago and I don’t care if it’s only worth $1 now. I still love it and plan to keep it for a long time.

Sort of the same mentality a home buyer should have.

Let’s see how long your “love” lasts when gas starts hitting $10/gallon (not too far away, assuming the Hubbert peak-oilers are correct).

RE home-buyers mentality: If you purchased a house with %0-down and a negatively-amortizing loan anytime in the past 7 years, then one’s “plans” will be meeting “reality” in short order.
