So, let a teacher teach, let the police officer police, let the doctor mend, and most importantly to this subject, let the Realtor handle real estate!

All of us work in fields that are highly litigious (lawyers, doctors, finance, etc.), so our minds can conceive of a ridiculous number of things that can go wrong, and the amount of time we spent on the operating agreement reflects that.

Many retirees leave CA but per the data they are being replaced by doctors and software engineers.   

I've seen well paid doctors never pay one bill on time and banquet waiters have $50,000 cash tips ready to use as a down payment.

Sure, doctors, lawyers and engineers/architects and the like should be licensed because their expertise is technical and a laymen is typically not in a position to judge their efficacy.

How is it possible to have a doctorate degree in the subject of money itself, and not be rich?

People have mortgages, five  3 year old kids, have to bring their sick kids to the doctor while working 3 jobs to make ends meet.So here comes this dude "Ohh why don't you figure out the fancy lifestyle you want to live and design your business around that".

Again, read WCI, posts about guys living paycheck to paycheck because of lifestyle creep when they are senior doctors.

Before that, I read Doctor Sleep by Stephen King.

The public, after all, will decide where to live, where to open and run businesses, and how much to pay for CA property.I happen to agree with Kelly's view that change in perceptions doesn't get "accelerated" until there is an "incident"...Just as the middle-aged man who, after surviving a life-threatening heart attack, finally begins heeding his doctor's advice to eat better and exercise more, Californians won't think twice about changing where they live unless (or until) an "incident" occurs which dramatically impacts their current way of life.
