    US Map: Economic Stress

    Man, look at California -- it's one big sea of red.... If you live there, Las Vegas, or Florida (From the looks of this map) -- You're bearing the brunt of it. Some of the same areas that had the biggest housing price run ups during the bubble -- coincidence? I think not. -Hakrjak

    The Flipping Houses Jackpot

    REAL ESTATE 
    Sorry to hear that once again California has gone out of their way to make sure it's as difficult and expensive as possible to do business. I've been able to find some real steals on used units, and even a couple of new units with the caps still on here over the past 2 yrs, and I have never...

    How Should I Spend Insurance Windfall?

    JScott and I are of the same mind here. There is no reason for any fastlaner to have any credit card debt, unless it's temporary & directly tied to a project that will produce a profit. There is simply no excuse for this -- Pay it off immediately. - Hakrjak

    Is this fastlane? $25 a week positive cashflow. "My" first unit.

    REAL ESTATE 
    Re: Is this fastlane? $25 a week positive cashflow. "My" first u I like to think in terms of how many properties it will take me to reach a set goal like $1000 per month of cashflow, $2k, $5k, $10k.... So then I do my math, and the easiest way to hit that goal is to earn more per month...

    Hyperinflation Coming? Very Very Concerning...

    HOT! INVESTING 
    With our current government that would be a big risk. Since they have employed most of Jimmy Carter's economic team, that gave us the gas price fixing of the 1970's -- I could totally see them fixing housing & rent prices if things started to shoot up. They'd go back to the well and use poor...

    Well in Econ 101 back in the college days they always warned that deflation is much worse than inflation, so if we're about to get some inflation happening -- I guess we should count our blessings :) The nice thing would be for us to all get our salaries doubled, and then be paying back...

    It seems that commodity prices inside the US are deflating though, atleast from what I see when I go to the supermarket.... Normally from a weak dollar, I'd expect to see prices rising rapidly, but I'm not seeing that. Gas too... Cars are always cheaper than they've been in years. Housing is...

    How many properties have you sold/bought this year?

    REAL ESTATE 
    For a few years there, I let what the media was telling me influence my investment decisions. That was a big mistake. It's so much easier to make money when you're doing the opposite of what the crowd is doing. Cheers, - Hakrjak
