i wouldn't say anything to discourage a person from owning their own home. it's such a sound investment on so-oo many levels.
on that note: i did a little work on my backyard.

In sooo many levels your right gorbie and your right.
BTW: you've done a wonderful job of reinstating your backyard.
Looks just fantastic.I have a so many friends of varing age groups that are looking to sell, and I know how much of a pain in the royals that is to hear.
It purely sux, but in the end when the housing economy goes it's better to have sold ahead and be renting for a year off. You'll have well over market value for your place and be able to get a better one for a better price, but mind you with a little bit higher interest rate.

i'm in at 6.25% on a 30 year fixed... so i can safely ride out any catastrophe the near future may have in store....
the timing in any market is a difficult thing to nail down.
it will boil down to "is it right for you, now"... and i don't think i'll ever regret doing so.
and thank you very much for the compliment! i'm enjoying the little bits of "sweat-equity". it's more personally rewarding than anything else.

Eddy, wikkid! congrats! looks suh-weet.
Gorbie, fuckin nicely done man! why'd you get rid of the vines on that cement wall though? vines rule..

The cost of properties here in San Diego is so high that most 1st time buyers end up paying interest only for a while.
An interest hike could really mess things up for a lot of people.

what is this washer / dryer business?????
I would assume you also have some 'garbage disposal' gadget as well..I have heard those are wonderful.
hahahah
(he's a sell out for the appliances) - j/k. Much love and happy commuting!

nick... thanks d00d.
the vines were growing outta control. they were a mess. they also attract a lot of large bees. and my girlfriend is highly allergic. i still have a lot of landscaping to do... but i wanted to start from a fresh pallete.
plus i want to use the wall to project movies on in the summer nights. i wish i could find a fucking deal on those digital projectors,... they're so-oo expensive.
- ********0
nice, gorb-- did you chop down that tree?
- ********0
nice, that makes sense.
projectors are the shit.. i have the perfect wall for it in my room... but like you said, so-ooo expensive.

gorbie your dog is the cutest thing! he is so pudgy, i wanna pinch his cheeks! :P
and good job on the yard, very impressive!
- Gorbie0
hell yeah.
that was some seriously dangerous work.
i felt bad... but that apricot tree was prolly about 70-80 years old... never been maintained. it wasn't in good shape at all.
i'll post videos of the massacre.
