What if I bought a house in 2006 in San Diego?
You would have lost nothing. You would have actually gained, because some of the principal balance would have been paid off.

Fourthly, he'll appoint Charles Keating comptroller of the currency
He met an untimely death.
There will be no wall
There will be a wall. Those who want to immigrate to the US legally are welcome, but must get in line like everyone else.
A deportation force to round up and throw out 11 million undocumented people would be a logistic and economic nightmare
True. Trump only plans on deporting criminals. Good riddance.
and no ban on Muslims entering the country
Muslims from terrorist countries like saudi Arabia and Pakistan should be banned. We don't need them.
Funding and maintaining a website that celebrates abject racism, misogyny, and other disgusting behaviors under the guise of "free speech" is another example of a really bad decision. I wouldn't be surprised if he got blackballed from the tech industry.
"Free" speech should NEVER be free of consequence. Words should ALWAYS have consequences, good or bad, or else they are meaningless.
You're pegging Patrick to that? You are off your rocker sir. You're twisting is beyond comprehension.
There will be a wall.
Oh aren't you precious. Of course there will be a wall. Just like Bush's wall and everyone else who promised a wall before.
Politicians always lie. Trump is a businessman. He makes promises.
Didn't take long for the lefty assholes to start posting monkey/chimp/orangutan pictures of the president elect. Fucking hypocrites would shit their pants and scream RAYCYST if that happened to Obummer. In fact, if I recall it DID happen early on causing a firestorm.
Expect to see this ad nauseam for the next 4 years from people like dick-nose Dennis.
Good job roberta.
I see you are on step 7 of Dickwads Anonymous, self-disassociation of previous Dickwad personalities.

No, I am NOT some loser who teaches remedial math at a shithole community college in the middle of the desert.

Don't blame the opinions of individuals on Patrick. Free speech is free speech, wether you like it or not.
Thank You for the free speech site, Patrick.

"celebrates" pfffft
2016... the year when it's become trendy for liberals to accuse anyone who thinks differently than them of being racist and misogenistic 👎ðŸ¿
there are some bad apples here, but Patrick most certainly doesn't fall in that category
There will be no wall
You seem very confident.
I'll bet you $100.00 Trump will start building a wall.
I'll bet you $100.00 Trump will start building a wall.
Hahaha, you really are precious aren't you. "Start", sure thing pal.
The loser sends $100 to Patrick to be used towards the next meet up he attends. Are we on?
They did the same to Obama AND Bush AND Clinton. Grow up and quit acting like a little bitch.
Bush A LOT Obama, not so much dick nose.
When you teach remedial math do you cover the concept of magnitude or is that just too much for you and your students?
I say let them come HERE so we don't have to send poor people's children to die over THERE because Strategist is AFRAID.
So you think letting Saudis and Pakistanis into the US will reduce terrorism, and prevent wars.
You are nuts.
1 Bush > 2 Clintons + 1 Obama
Hell, Trump isn't even president yet and he's approaching 800K.

Yeah, renting instead of buying is a great move!
That is right!
Instead of buying, Patrick invested the down payment money ($100,000) in AAPL at 50c/share (adjusted price). This week he sold 1/3 of his position at $110/share to buy a 2.5mil house cash + capital gains taxes. The examining equity position pays him over $120,000/y in dividends.
Worked out sort of like that for me. Waiting instead of buying allowed me to not sell under $200K company stock, that I was sure would go way up, to later cash it out, pay taxes and still have nearly $1.25 million. Picked up some cheaper out of state houses for around $50K a pop as well which cash flow.
200K wouldn't have bought me shit on the peninsula and if it did I would be seriously house poor right now.
That excludes the other small investments I had at the time which also grew well in this market. No debt that isn't a low leverage asset feels awesome!
You can tax the rich all you want, but the old model of taxation always applies, and applies to the rich more than anyone. If your tax burden is too high, people stop producing as much. Consequences of taxing anyone too highly is the same: they move or stop producing so your tax intake goes down anyway. Taxing less always leads to more production and a larger pie, but the key is to find the exact right ratio to maximize the pie and tax revenues at once.
Expanding the middle class with good jobs returning to the States would help tremendously with your overall tax revenues. And capital gains taxes could go to 25%, to incentivize real investment rather than passive stock trading.
Then do away with corporate loopholes and all incentives for offshoring, and adjust the maximum corporate tax down to 25%, to incentivize investment in job-creating activities.
That and leaving the income taxes mostly alone should produce a surplus rather than a deficit. Remember, the more people working, the fewer we must pay to sit around, and the more we can collect through taxes.
Also these new working people will buy stuff and make the economy grow. Pretty soon we will actually have a need for immigration as we will have more jobs to fill than citizens to fill them.
So everyone wins.
The Eastern mystics have it right. It's all about balance.
In surveys conducted before the election, no religious group backed the Republican candidate as strongly as white evangelical Protestants
IT was the cocaine sniffles that really locked it down for them. A lot of those born again types are recovering drug or alcohol addicts. On a subconscious level, they also respect the extreme dishonesty Trump displays.
When your choice is between an allegedly reformed philandering real estate investor and Mrs. Lucifer, you take your chances with the realtor. Nobody likes realtors, but they're mundane evil compared to the unquestioned malice of the KKKlinton dynasty.
I've gotten most of the annoying shitheads to put me on ignore. Looks like I've missed one. Dennis, you're about to get pwned so hard you'll have to ignore me just to avoid your daily rape shower!
