But he handled it all himself.. was very down to earth.. still drove his Blazer etc..

The high prices were artificial; there's just too much supply on earth, it just took a few years for the technology to extract it to develop and the supply to catch up. 

Having been born in the Soviet Union, that God forsaken place put on earth for one purpose only, which is to keep a man down, I am acutely aware that America is special.Funny enough, folks assumed that I am depressed from the title.

How on Earth did you pull off that 82% if you don't mind me asking?

The only money that is yours is the money you can make/spend/invest/give while you are on this earth.

I've done a few things: (1) while driving to and from my investment property, I take note of vacant lots (2) I use Google earth to get aerial views of the neighborhoods I am interested in to see where the vacant lots are (3) I search the local MLS and filter for vacant land.  

Let me pose this question, how many people on here give back to their communities, have you donated some sweat equity, give some money to a charity, even said a kind word to a homeless guy/ gal on the street.My personal opinion is that these political parties are set up to keep people under control and thats it.... everyone was so happy and filled with hope for obama now he's going to be the death of our america; there is no our america its is and always will be changing; john f. kennedy faced hell to get elected because he was catholic and it was though he was going to be taking orders from the pope, now he's looked back on with rose tinted glasses.People fight so hard against education and understanding the world outside of their little box; i've seen programs where people would shout burn the books but leave our bible alone; people still thinks the sun revolves around the earth, or don't know where the sun goes at night. . . its not about democrats or republicans i'm sure most of you guys know that those parties basically flipped during the civil rights era; i often hear people say were the party of abraham lincoln really what does that mean, in todays world it means nothing!

The colliding atoms or the 1,000,000 year old earth?

They would sacrifice their lives in many instances rather than deny their faith. ( one other correction- African Americans are welcomed into the Mormon Church in full fellowship with all opportunities available to them, the same as any other people on the face of the Earth) I'm not trying to categorize different prejudices, just stating they exist and MOST groups get over it.

Warm earth colors.
