Phoenix is in the middle of a desert. Why the heck do people actually live there? Ridiculous.

Hey either of you dipshits want to speculate why I was right and you were completely wrong?????
You are correct, but not for reason that are sustainable. Good luck going forward. I would collect your chips and convert to cash, but no, GREED kills as always. Let them ride and see how your theories hold up long term. hehe

Why don't you just go back to lying about your investing record in your own thread?

AND you sound like a whiny punk with stupid things like this, just for once in your life, be a man and say "I was completely wrong."
Sure,
I was completely wrong about Phoenix. The place turned out to be worse than I ever imagined. Homeless and inferno heat is all I remember. And they are the good memories.

Phoenix is in the middle of a desert. Why the heck do people actually live there? Ridiculous.
To quote T.E. Lawrence - as channeled by Peter O'Toole - on the subject of the desert: "It's clean."
Casa Grande is actually nice, in the sense of not being ugly, but the rest of the area should be used for nuclear testing.
To enjoy Phoenix, you need to go inside one of those storage lockers for human beings in the retirement areas south of town. Crank the AC, close all the blinds, so you can't see or hear Phoenix, and it's actually like being on the space station, except with gravity and you can't look out the window at anything resembling planet Earth.
During the heat of the day, if you wander out into the xeriscape back yard, the dry heat is actually invigorating. Be careful when outside not to raise your eyes above the line of the cinder-block fencing, so as not to catch a glimpse of the outside world.
Doesn't someone around here keep barking about how Phoenix real estate is appreciating? We might already have proof of multi-universes for the string theory folks right on this site.
Below exerpt is taken from this link. Look which area is #2 spot on the list of worst depreciating asset?
