Opens door, looks in…. sees crowd of children throwing spitballs at each other.
Sighs, closes door, gets back to work.
“Don’t you know that Fort Greene and Clinton Hill were “gentrified” by middleclass blacks first?”
Middle class Blacks?? First retard how about Middle Class African Americans! Middle Class Blacks sound like a rockband.
Second in the 60’s White people fled these neighborhoods not because of “Black Gentrification” . Oh man I feel sorry for the retards! You need to come to 2009, this is where we at….
Team Bear I have some things to do and I hope you have some things to also. Leave the retards alone they are spinning….
AIG’s Liddy Said to Shift Strategy After Asset-Sale Plan Fails
http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=am2QZHJphun0&refer=home
Feb. 24 (Bloomberg) — American International Group Inc. may scrap a plan to repay a $60 billion U.S. government loan by selling businesses, after failing to find enough promising bidders, said two people with knowledge of the matter.
Chief Executive Officer Edward Liddy, who took charge in September and unveiled the strategy the following month, has concluded it won’t work, said the people, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the insurer’s talks with the government are private. AIG is proposing additional ways to reduce the company’s debt to the U.S., including handing over stakes in some operations directly to the government, a person said.
AIG has wasted 300 Billions dollars and the funny thing is the retards believe Brownstone prices will stay the same….
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…
Simple math:
920K x .65% = 5,501,600,000
“When they was economically pushing poor people out of their neighborhood, the Asshats didn’t care!! Bed Stuy, Greenpoint, Flatbush, Williamsburg and Bushwick people lost their way of life so Meagan and Josh from Armpit OHIO can pay 1700.00 a month for a studio in the Ghetto!!!”
***
Here’s my take on it. See…the thing is…a LOT of people who the What claims were “pushed out” actually were BOUGHT out for very large sums of money. Big difference.
The What most likely left the ‘hood for Lodi pre-bubble and is pissed that he wasn’t BOUGHT out at the sums that people have been bought out over the last few years. It makes him mad, so he acts like a child about it.
Sorry…I don’t feel bad for those who lived in these neighborhoods for 50 years, then sold their home for a million dollars to then retire to Florida. He’s just regretting the fact that he left so soon. He wasn’t able to handle life in Brooklyn, left for NJ and can’t stand the fact that if he had waited just a little longer, he TOO could have been “pushed” out of the “ghetto”
It will sell for something like $750-800 right now cornerbodega. Pull your fucking head out of your ass. There are people closing on houses in Bed Stuy as we speak. You really don’t know anything about any specific market do you??
BHO—here is another quote about my thinking in re the potential “value” of my home in the near term.
“I bought the cheapest house that I could imagine myself living in that fell within the borders of Clinton Hill and I talked the price down 200G before I bought. So I certainly didn’t walk wide-eyed into the buzzsaw. At the same time as I have said repeatedly, I have no doubts that it will experience some form of devaluation over the next year/s.
So this is all short hand for saying if you are trying to put some nefarious real estate scam on me, you got the wrong guy.”

You really should be careful about what you say when the record is so easy to obtain.
White asshats like myself moving in had nothing to do with the gentrification of Bed Stuy. It was done by those who live there and have lived there for generations as far as I can see all around me.
“cornerbodega doesn’t really understand anything at all, can’t do simple math and is just here for our amusement” ~dibs
dibs, you laid out $920K for your ghetto property.
920K x .65% decline = 920 – 598 = $322K
CAN YOU DO SIMPLE MATH?
Wasder, methinks the What is too buy riding shotgun with that multi-lingual woodchuck to get back to you.
