    Ya but I don't know if a 50 or 60 year old version of myself would want to be in the city -- I might want to be outside of town where all the damn kids won't bother me. hehe..... I probably won't even have a stripper pole in my den by the time I'm that old! Cheers, - Hakrjak

    Hey Russ -- I was just looking at Stockton, CA. Real Estate, and I was finding all kinds of houses for $19k, $30k, etc... haha I'll say that is a bottom! Those are like Detroit prices! I never thought I'd see the day when prices there would be lower than prices in Colorado Springs...

    Hyperinflation and Real Estate

    INVESTING 
    I did man, but I can't help notice that their site is using that article to help them sell gold coins... So I'm not sure how credible the article is -- Although very interesting. Also like the article sort of admits -- Pre WW2 Germany and modern day USA aren't exactly great comparison's since...

    Hyperinflation and Real Estate

    INVESTING 
    How about equities? If hyper-inflation happens, wouldn't the price of stocks increase exponentially as well? And be a more liquid way to get at your money than Real Estate? (I'm still wondering, if the price of my $100k house can be $1million in a month or so.... Who is going to have the...

    Stop the Spyware insanity!

    Yeh Bilge -- You're definitely on the right track, and being an IT guy myself -- I had heard about the Microsoft Malware scanner, so I downloaded it and go to run it, and whatever is on my PC is shutting the window before the damn thing can even install. They've written their code to kill this...

    Hyperinflation Coming? Very Very Concerning...

    HOT! INVESTING 
    I like where your head is at Bobo... but we know that the Feds would do all they could to keep that from happening just like last time -- Because when the states with all the industry that are making all the money (And paying all the taxes) try to leave the Union, there is nobody left to pay the...

    Hyperinflation and Real Estate

    INVESTING 
    I'm with you Russ, feeling like the banks & government with find a way to screw us.... But we have a binding contract with them, and I've never seen any language in a mortgage that talks about inflation -- So we could hold them to it.... Problem being -- I'll bet they go crying to the US...

    Here are the ones that Spybot consistantly finds (I tried cranking my privacy settings to prompt me for cookies -- thanks for that tip above): Doubleclick (Is this not a large corporation that I could sue?) AdRevolver (Another large corp that I could take legal action against?) FastClick...

    Stop the Spyware insanity!

    So does IE... And it has worked flawlessly for the past 3 years... They just started sneaking through again about a month ago, like I said -- As if the bad guys have figured out a way around it! And the types of pop-ups I'm talking about will launch a new IE Window when they wan to pop-up...

    Stop the Spyware insanity!

    Yeh but I don't even know what sites I caught these from.... I'll just be doing my work and do a yahoo search, and when I click on search -- Get a pop-up... I have to close that pop-up before I can see my search results.... It's like some kind of virus or malware... Normal pop-ups are blocked...

    Stop the Spyware insanity!

    About 5 years ago, I had major Spyware issues... They were crippling my PC, until a new service pack for windows came out, and a bunch of critical fixes, and poof -- The Spyware dissapeared and didn't darken my door again until...... About 2 weeks ago! I started getting popups again... I ran...

    Yeh I agree it's not uncommon for a congressman to get up there and talk about sports or random crap, but to do it at a 4th grade reading level, and not be speaking English is still pretty uncommon on the floor of the US Congress. haha ;) - Hakrjak

    Need help with retirement plans! Quickly!

    $90k would be a perfect amount to use to get into flipping, but it sounds like you travel an awful lot, so I dunno what you're involvement level could be -- Or if you have someone local you could really trust to run things in your absence... The hiring a general contractor route could work best...

    What’s your opinion of social networking sites?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    One more note... If you are sending out advertisements for your products or business, I think I'm like a lot of Facebook or social network users -- In that, I will general take very little of that, and typically ban you from my page pretty quick. I don't add anyone that I don't know...

    Just keep in mind that nobody will be able to get financing on a mobile home in today's credit market. They started cutting back the lending on these a few years back and they have kept on cutting. It's because they rapidly depreciate in value and do not sell on the open market. Even with...
