The funny thing is that I sold this property 2 months before the bubble burst.
Leftists hate “the rich”, the successful, the puissant, but their misguided policies ultimately favor those they hate. There’s a reason. I’m a self-made man—worked hard, planned carefully, and earned every dime I have—made it all from nothing. What Leftists hate to consider is that “the rich” are like me—either they earned it or they didn’t but were clever enough to keep it (which is the same thing).
Agreed, and well done. Something else funny, though. Many leftists have some cash flow for the time being but with more negatives in debts, yet some of them pretend to be rich in some ways for appearances and influence around neighbors and other folks in their offices. I try to keep a more humble posture while building what I can.
On the local lefties, some of their places are being foreclosed, one after another. They tend to look for odd, trivial accusations to sling around (often about our private roads and related business), so I continue to stay out of their way and avoid furthering any of the gossip. I reckon we’ll be seeing more peace and quiet before long.
