    Presidential Elections

    Like many readers here it's been a long slog and the subject matter has been beaten into a fine mist. My hope is that by the 2nd week after the inauguration we may find this thread with zero activity - a good thing because at some point people simply have to move on. PS. Soylent Red bought one...

    Presidential Elections

    "January 6th" is the "Russia, Russia, Russia" of today. Post election combative actions are nothing new. Go down the corridors of history and you'll find many examples of riotous behavior in The Capitol and at The White House from the very founding of the Republic. Ask anyone on the Left if the...

    Presidential Elections

    Not ignoring an average 2% inflation rate of 2017-2020 during those terrible terrible Tariff days. So there are fewer E-Bike manufacturers and vendors. ZZZzzz OH, sorry. I dozed off browsing AOL chats and Asking Jeeves about the weather on my Compaq PC. Competition and oversaturation shuts...

    Presidential Elections

    Nothing eludes me. I've only asked for personal impacts of these tariffs. So far, I've heard of business impacts, not personal. So... an E-Bike is more expensive. That's hardly moving the needle much, but yes, an impact none the less. With all of the E-Bike Koooks zooming around I'd rather see...

    Presidential Elections

    Tell me again how you were personally impacted by the Trump Tariffs please. Not at all? So evidently all these tall tales of TARIFF ARMAGEDDON seem then to be confirmed as the steaming pile of feces they've always been. Now that we're past that issue, what are Kopy Kat Kamala's 3 personally...

    Presidential Elections

    It's been almost 60 days since I asked anyone to provide 3 examples of a Kamala Harris achievement. Nothing yet.... Now I've asked another reasonably simple question: Tell me how Trump Tariffs impacted you personally? The only answer so far has been ". ...But...But ... JANUARY 6TH!!!!" Weird...

    Presidential Elections

    Really? A story about economics from Rolling Stone? That article, plus a dozen "fact check" stories seem to be trying to drown out the original responses to the interview - one that started with an audience's standing ovation, then a systematic crushing of hosts low information questions, then...

    Presidential Elections

    The Coppertone Caligula couldn't guarantee a debate would be held as CNN did - a remarkable fair and even handed one (I'm shocked myself to admit it!) The 2nd debate was clearly a 3 vs 1 event - content aside - and in no way "non-partisan". The Veep debate was also a 3 vs 1 event, but at least...

    Retail Openings and Closures

    Don't know if prices and selections are better than some of the other stores, but wasn't a fan of the layout or the food bar at the one over in Costa Mesa. Perhaps I'm just comfortable with Mitsuwa. https://tokyocentral.com/tokyo-central-costa-mesa

    Presidential Elections

    Kopy Kat Kamala update...... Well, I was wrong. A Team K-MSM outlet did pick up and on the story - The New York Times. Their conclusions? A) Dat's Rayyycist.... B) It was only a small number of misattributions... C) And you're still rayyyyycist. The rebuttal by the author is thorough...

    Newer Irvine listings with crazy WTF asking prices from equity sellers

    Yes, and no. $2m on an IO loan at 8.0% is about $13,300 each month. If you close in September and have a November 1st payment, you might make that one, and a December payment before the next "bigger fool" closes on their deal - a $26-$28k risk cost.

    Gotta love late October in a Presidential Election Year. First one out of the gate: Seems like at least one thing from Biden finally rubbed off on Temu Grade Mao..... (although Team K-MSM will never report it)...

    Newer Irvine listings with crazy WTF asking prices from equity sellers

    Sorry @coder77 about the "reasonable price offer" refusal by these flippers. If they get their price there's no real incentive for them to take anything lower than FP. If they are still unsold by January, I'm sure they will take a harder look at another offer. Re: seller data. Not being...

    For some of these new build flips, you could get a monster property like this with a much lower tax base. https://www.redfin.com/CA/Villa-Park/19241-Canyon-Dr-92861/home/4343334

    Presidential Elections

    Gotta ask yourself why anyone should vote for a party that wants to eliminate the Electoral College, that wants to ban photo ID's to vote, that fights States who are purging felons and non-citizens from voting lists, and wants 50 state ballot harvesting. It's as if they can't win without some...

    Newer Irvine listings with crazy WTF asking prices from equity sellers

    One seller has a new build Brock home in Lake Forest, so this Irvine buy was simply a speculative flip. One seller is a real estate investor out of LA, so yeah, this also is a speculative flip. The Hyperion seller must of had their nephew or niece run a CGI version of the home out of a...

    Irvine to Santa Clarita - Looking for Insights

    A neighbor of mine in RSM had his insurance cancelled for the same reason. His new policy is a mix of CalFair Plan and private insurance overlays to cover any gaps..... All this for $7,000 as well! YOW
