Don't worry about me, I own my home outright and I have some real estate on the side as mentioned in the forums before. I pointed it out back when the Calgary Real Estate thread went on a personal attack binge.
(I'd dump the side investment but it's rather small and the partner is loathe to part with it which is fine with me at this stage given how immaterial it is.) The "oil price bonus" this year alone more than outstripped any equity in real estate I hold right now.
I don't mind being called chicken, heh. I enjoy the discussion and other points of view that people point out in the forums - lots of stuff that I never would have seen or learnt otherwise. Especially with their work experience as realtors, investors, etc. As I've always mentioned, I try not to give "advice" - what do I know, I'm not expert like many other people are here on the forums. I just like crunching the numbers - please feel free to buy or sell all the real estate as much or as little as you like.
Seriously, again I'm not an expert - don't bank on the stuff I see or link but please share your view, I would love to learn from it.
That being said, I have been screwed out of a win in our corporate fantasy football pool after a foxsports made a "revision" after the game! I demand a recount!
(now that at least I can understand the revision - I guess we'll see in a few weeks how far off the NAR numbers have been; I am curious just from a statistical point of view.)
