Valve has more money than God right now for snagging a serious niche in digital marketing and for having a consistent high
standard in video game development. The $350 Xbox 360

games for the original Xbox. There are 51 trophies in Battlefield:

If the RE were supervised like the stock markets, these scoundrels would all be rotting in jail by now.
Instead, they are in bed with the local and provincial governments.

@Space889 – Go home… You’re drunk
@patriotz – Asians always wonder why parents-children relationship for Caucasian are so distant and cold… the aging parents wonder why the kids never want to visit them except when they are close to kick the bucket and there is inheritance to be had…
There is need to independence and there is also finance prudence, they aren’t mutually exclusive.

Is it possible to create a 48 ban for anyone that has 3 foreclosed posts in 24 hours (or something to that effect)?
Or just start banning these idiots. What’s the point of keeping them around?

HAM has gone south. It’s now easier to get into the USA so that’s where they are going.
Buy high & Sell low – Getting Rich for Idiots
My wife and I love Real Estate, the problem is we love making money even more. We make some of our smartest money through buying low (and intelligently) and selling high and I am not talking about Real Estate. Shouldn’t these two go hand in hand though? After all we have always been told that Real Estate always goes up and as such the money invested into Real Estate will always go up (grow) as well.

@Cause and effect
to suggest that immigration has zero effect on real estate is silly.
real estate agents told everyone that the market wouldn’t go down because of HAM. fundamentalist bears wanted to believe that the crash was inevitable, so they convinced themselves that HAM is a myth.
that’s why the fundamentalists can’t bring them selves to see the effect that the end of HAM is going to have on the market. no amount of evidence will convince the ham denialists.
but there is one thing we can all count on. the fundamentalist bears are ALWAYS WRONG.
@127: “So one should prove his manhood by throwing away money on hard earned after-tax dollar on rent when they can live at home for free acommodation or likely pay below market rent to their parents.”
Well that’s exactly how you proved your manhood not too long ago, except you didn’t consider it “throwing away money” because getting away from your parents was worth every penny.
But that’s back when teenagers looked forward to growing up, rather than being averse to it.
So one should prove his manhood by throwing away money on hard earned after-tax dollar on rent when they can live at home for free acommodation or likely pay below market rent to their parents. Sounds like a smart financial plan to me.
Also please don’t confuse luck with investing prowess….the last 20 years has seen some huge bubbles and just general upward trend in markets. Yes there was two big crashes but Fed came to the rescue in both cases with huge liquidity injections. Herd following have worked pretty well.
@122
Whatever the statistics, which we will never know btw, what matters is the urban legend is dead, and the urge to borrow money to buy overpriced properties is gone.
Weather is warming now that IIP is gone. What conclusion can we draw from this? what’s your answer?
“He also plans to keep investing in real estate: “My goal is to buy one condo every year.”
That’s a lot of special assessments. I hear those Toronto condos are even crappier than ours.
