He isn't cherrypicking one number pick any number for food to gas and I am not talking Bush for Christ's sake W is NOT the basis for all that is today just get off the W bus. Pick any number.
What are you talking about? Of course he is cherry picking. It is an obviously deceptive number. And if he picks a number 3 years ago, then that is the number you discuss and within a related timeframe, or do you want me to suddenly jump from there to 1950 and an entirely different world?

Well, I am not referring to the past 15 years for anything because none of it was real.
We are already at mid 1990s prices in terms of monthly nut. All due to interest rates being 3% vs 8% in the 90s. Do some math for a change
Nonsense.
And try exercising some financial restraint instead of being a howmuchamonth'er.
Restraint?! How dare you ask anyone to conduct themselves with adult intelligence, responsibility and foresight. :-)
There is your problem you suffer from the adjusted for inflation syndrome you buy right into the mentality they brainwashed you into. However, reality is that not everything adjusted for inflation. EVERYTHING is through the roof. Have you not noticed what has happened gas double, food double, housing in fake numbers triple, clothes double, real wages declined.
I didn't say everything adjusted for inflation, I said you had to take it into consideration because stating that things like gas used to be a fraction of what they are now is clearly implying that current prices are many times higher than the past adjusted for inflation prices. That's just not true. Gas prices have varied greatly over the decades and actual cost to an individual is clearly also impacted by mileage, which has improved greatly. Or do you take everything in isolation? And what exactly do you expect to happen to a finite resource in a world with an ever increasing population?

You certainly shouldn't bother asking Darrell.
Of course it's true. Wages have been flat to falling for 2 decades now.
Do really believe wages will triple to meet inflated housing prices? Of course not.
Housing prices will continue to fall to meet wages. That's the way the world works.
What's the current median US house price?
Whoa....
Of all people to belabor deception!!!
You've been here lying to the public about housing for how long now?
We;re going to call you out on your lies EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
You say that in nearly every post to me and yet strangely you've never once actually demonstrated it. What a surprise.
Well, I am not referring to the past 15 years for anything because none of it was real.
Presumably you just dreamt it.

No pal my mind is clear and head on straight once again let's review I have substaintial assets, no mortgage debt, no auto debt, under 15K left on a private university education and money in the bank. I am NOT dreaming.

What is it?

You demonstrate your dishonesty all on your own. And we're here to make sure everyone knows it.
And yet you still can't give a single example of me lying, or even explain my views on housing.
No pal my mind is clear and head on straight once again let's review I have substaintial assets, no mortgage debt, no auto debt, under 15K left on a private university education and money in the bank. I am NOT dreaming.
Ah yes, and what do you think that demonstrates? I have an easily manageable mortgage, investments, several offshore accounts, no student or car loans etc.. etc.. What does that demonstrate? Nothing because just like your 'review,' it has sweet fuck all to do with anything.
That's been done many times here, including yesterday.
You demonstrated nothing yesterday except that you can't draw a straight line in the right place.
And you continue to lie and play stupid about it.
Perhaps you could review what was said yesterday and explain the part where I was lying. You could even post another graph so you can have another go at drawing lines using your computer. You need the practice.

It demonstrates that I (as you ignorantly implied by your arsehole statement) was not and am not dreaming.
Now go manage your easily manageable mortgage, investments, several offshore accounts.
And you continue to lie and play stupid about it.
It is an obvious tactic that many of them use. It just doesn't play with everyone and that drives them crazy.

Ho, ho, ho. You were the one pointlessly boasting about it. No need to get your knickers in a twist.

You sound an awful lot like Darrell. And you seem to pop up at just the same time. Isn't it very early in the US?
Perhaps you can stop lying.

I sound like myself thank you. It just so happens that we appear to view the situation from a very similar standpoint of view.
As for US time? If you are in Monterey, CA you should know what time it is in the US.
You sound an awful lot like a liar.
Fun as always, but try to up the patter. If variety is the spice of life, you must be a chicken korma.

I'm not.
And what view would that be? That wages need to triple for people to afford the median US house price? What is the median price anyway?
Oh I see so you say you are in Monterey, CA yet you aren't. OK.
As for the median US house price I am not your reference slave, you are the genius investor ...go look it up.
You know the line doesn't move just because you make the graph bigger. It merely shows you to be wrong in your claim.

This is a real estate site. I have a home in Monterey. You work it out. And I'm a genius investor now, am I? How nice.
And I know what the median price is. I was wondering if you did. You and Darrell share the same views. Perhaps you could explain why a tripling of wages is required to afford that median.
You see that bit where it says Jan 04? That's the start of the year not the end.
I see you've started deleting your posts once again. You don't change, do you?
Perhaps you could explain why a tripling of wages is required to afford that median.
This is a real estate site? NO! REALLY?
Median has nothing to do with this regions in LA or the like that are so grossly overpriced where regular houses that were 150K in 1980 are trying to get 1M or more that is NOT median and NO median wage sustains a 1M or more in debt.
You have a HOUSE in Monterey, CA. I see.

Nice try.

Then you should stop generalizing about US house prices in your posts and state the specific areas you are talking about.
And yes, I have a home in Monterey.

It isn't generalising it is fact, and facts you clearly don't want to face.
As for Monetery? I was being ironic.

Darrell, is that you?
No it is not him. You try to work every angle don't you? Are a real case and half and I see right through it so stop.

Then what exactly is he accusing me of lying about seeing as you are spending your time agreeing with him?

Presumptions. I have a life to get to I recommend you do the same. This thread has been hashed to DEATH.

Wrong. You are a really bad manipulator. I am not Darrell. I will say that once for the record again. Let it go or look in the mirror. Later.
You can continue if you like I HAVE had enough of this thread and am not about to justify myself.

Let me answer this one, that is something you too have to work out because what I see is that you two aren't communicating. I think it boils down to minor technicalities. And frankly does it matter? No. It appears to me you have your viewpoint and he has his from the same materal you both disagree. Let it go. Bye.

All things being equal in terms of size and age of home....
Let's say they are both 1500 sq foot in size, built in 1990s and have the same size lots and general amenities.
One cost a cool $1,000,000.... that's the 1500 sq ft walking distance to beach home in Manhatten Beach, CA.
The other is in a suburb or Austin, TX and cost $100K.
Now let's say the million dollar home has a spanish style clay roof... so no need to ever replace it in your lifetime.
I'd be willingly to bet the cost to maintain the $1,000,000 beach home would cost less than the $100K home in Texas area.
Doesn't that kind of throw out the window the whole assumption of 1-2% maintenance cost based on purchase price of a home theory?
