Glisch of The Sentinel StaffHOUSTON — Not far from the granite skyscrapers simmering in the haze of downtown Houston, the dreams of thousands of Texans have ended in bulldozed fields overgrown with weeds and wild summer grass.The site was supposed to have been a massive subdivision, one of hundreds that sprang up overnight when the oil industry boomed during the 1970s and early 1980s, sending this sprawling, get-rich-quick city on a seemingly endless joy ride.But the ride has long since ended, the victim of a depressed oil market that has ravaged Houston's oil-addicted economy and left vacant lots and ''For Sale'' signs as visible scars of how quickly the good times turned bad in the nation's fourth-largest city.''

And how it is set up for multiple failures.It is much easier to just continue to play along, and that's what most will do.That being said, I am thinking of a move before hyperinflation gets the next depression going.Perhaps the UK or China would be a good choice?

She would be a depression person so knows that value of a buck.
