Great to see another FX trader coming into RE.

I know Japanese who invest in the US, got more than a few US clients who invest in Japan, and my mom (plus many others like her) won't look past Australia, even though you'd have better chances finding the proverbial needle in a haystack than finding a positively geared property anywhere but in mining towns down under (and these are here today gone tomorrow - not to mention you'd be hard pressed to buy one property for the price of five in the US these days)...and it goes on and on..

The "location" theme isn't always as reliable as the sun rising tomorrow, as many used to believe - the same goes for long term appreciation (real-estate always goes up in value, the American dollar is always a good currency to have, Japanese electronics are always no. 1, etc etc - so many axioms out there have proven to be anything but right)2.

Even arbitrage scenarios have time from the trader involved.

They meet at the Japanese Cultural Center on Beretania Street the first Thursday evening of each month.I'd also suggest having a look through the past articles on my websites http://bigrockinvestments.com and http://masterycoachingmichael.com/blog in addition to http://hawaiihousingnews.com.

The japanese economy suffered a balance sheet recession in the corporate sector and the the US has experienced a balance sheet recession in the household sector.

I am a Japanese-speaking Loan Officer here in Hawaii.

Just curious @Jack Trader how did your litigation turn out?

The NFL, in conjunction with local law enforcement, raided vendors at Traders World Flea Market in Monroe Ohio and seized over 2,100 fake NFL jerseys.

I am a trader first and a property person second.
