I'm flying back to San Francisco for a wedding. 

I will call tomorrow or text if I get VM, then deliver the letter on Wed.

Lot's of people seem to celebrate their failures with low income - that's like celebrating the fact that you can't learn to ride a bike.

Its Wed evening now and I have 3 applications and I'm expecting some to come via mail from the open house. 

Congrats and don't forget to celebrate :)

Celebrate at least a little.

And did I mention the eviction process was happening while I was planning my wedding?

Oh, and by the way, I bought my first property 12 months ago while I still had student loan debt and while we were saving up for a wedding 4 months later so it was a TERRIBLE decision for me, but I dont regret it at all, ha!  

I can think of far more dubious "speculations" than that, that people do all the time, without anyone critiquing them for it.The dial turned to hyper mega turbo boost, where celebrities buy for $50m and then sell 8 years later for $40m, is too far, insufficient liquidity at those price points seems to create unpredictable volatility.

The issue here is although there are some great investments here, the owner/occupant factor is making it tough because the houses in my budget are either too far a commute from the City or not in the condition of something we’d wed want live in the next few years.
