I did make some money on the stock afterall, so I can't be too irritated. What's really frustrating is that if I would have put in my limit order of $2.50 per share at the beginning of the month when I laid out my plan, I would have had a 100% gainer on my hands right now. Oh well, better to be pissed that you missed the trade than be pissed you made the trade. I agree the housing bottom isn't in just yet, I think there's a lot more damage to be done, quite frankly. -Grant @hayek

They see no bottom for a while so we have a ways to go. All my REI foreclosure investing buddies have stepped aside. They see no bottom for a while so we have a ways to go.

That's cheaper than buying a new car (at least for now). One would think that the previous owners could have afforded to live there even if they lost their jobs. If you decide to take a tour, I'd be interested in reading about what you find. Amazing.. $18,000 for a place to live. That’s cheaper than buying a new car (at least for now).
