hahaha, I've been wanting to buy a place for some time,
the descriptive terminology of real estate agents borders
on the ludicrous.

That shack/shed in the San Jose Area, East Bay area and the north wino counties would probably start between $350,000 to $550,000.

Looks like a little fixer-upper in Hollister, CA. For about $200,000.

For $200,000 we'll name a earthquake after you...

The world has gone mad.

Actually the Clintons were doing very much the same thing in the 80’s. It is all very respectable, all the pols are doing similar scams. The schemes in the 80’s lead to the doom of the S&L’s in this country - and oh, yeah, another mega looting of the taxpayer.

And to make up for their stupidly - the banks are now raising interest rates on credit cards to the point that people won't be able to make payments. Is that going to be a new bailout? I'm tired of this... NOW.

Yes, I think that will be the next bailout.

The shed in my backyard is bigger than that! Can I refinance it for 103k also?

[GOPJ]

If the banks are screwing over my fellow citizens, why would I want to bail them out? Do they make big donations to dem congressmen?
