Thats the way it works.
Yes. The world would be a much nicer place, and much easier for me to understand if everyone else were just like me. If only everyone else behaved like me, wanted what I wanted and saw everything through my eyes, there would be no problems, no conflict; just safe, predictable pencilneck nobodies going through the motions.
That's the way it should work.0 -
Will you still be a bear when you've bought your house and it continues dropping in value?
Im not intending to buy a house anytime soon. Im not interested in getting into mountains of debt just to own a house.
Buying an affordable home and seeing a price drop or rise of a couple of thousand wont cause me any concern. Im not one of those that bought at ridiculous prices during the boom and i never intend to be in the same boat as them.0
