Recovery Sooner Than Later?
The market is supposed to be a forward-looking discounting machine. It’s supposed to price in what’s expected to happen over the next few months and years. Is the market perfect at this? No. If it were, there would be no real opportunity to do well in it. The market is, however, very good at incorporating…
Dave,
Thanks for the offer, and I do love “Therapy” as well as The Ritz which is nearby (have you been?) but I’m on tap to go to BuyinBrooklyn tomorrow night in Park Slope. Everything open till 10pm and I missed it last week.
I hope we’re having another get-together soon. Maybe Wed or Thurs of next week?
Rob is right about unemployment. If you include the “discouraged” as they do in Europe, the official rate doubles to about 12 percent.
Rob, you can put 3 percent down on a condo, you DO need a high credit score (650 to 800) but even a terrible one can be fixed over time, and the mortgage on 100K will be much cheaper than renting — between $600 and $900, depending on mortgage rate and how much you put down.
And Brooklyn Heights and Carroll Gardens are hardly the only desirable neighborhoods in which to do that in NYC. Hannible, you are an idiot.
ditto…they say its at the “Aspen Social Club” across from Langan’s. I haven’t been back over there in a long time so its either a gentrified Pig n Whistle or something new.
Anything called “social club” is gonna be a big piss up as the Brits say.
I think my favorite part was when John Laroquette broke…no, shattered, the third wall in the episode before last during his rant about television programming. But which jab at the network are you referring to?
the pig n whistle?
“Wasder, you will be surrounded by all x chromosomes. Congratulations on this most excellent achievement. But next time if you want a boy, be sure to give your wife a “y.””
Whoops! Thanks Mopar. Shows you how much I know about genetics.
11217–thanks for baby wishes. not trying to be too harsh but just wondered why your otherwise reasonable points had to come couched in such condescending language. I have no beef with you–you seem a smart and successful guy and I often agree with your point of view. I can see how some people bring out the snark in others–it happens to me too (with a few folks who you can probably guess). but in defense of cobblehiller she is good people and somebody who is doing her best to figure out how to make a go of it here in NYC just like everyone else.
Noklissa-thanks for baby wishes. How is your family?
gwbrubaker–sorry to hear about your situation. you are spot on about how we should try to treat each other nicer on this board.
11217…there’s a party tomorrow night for some of my ex colleagues who are leaving the firm we used to work at and going somewhere else
it’s on 47th between 6th & 7th…want to come??
Then we can go to “Therapy”
Cobblehiller is invited too…and we will all drink alot and make nice talk!!!!
Thank YOU. I don’t care where we have the freakin holiday party…I just want to get wasted.
Raw cookie dough!!!! Now we’re back on topic.
