And many of these firms are hiring talent of all ages, but in the area of robotics, sciences and other technology fields, a lot of young urban professionals are coming from CMU and need places to live close to these businesses.

Clients and management essentially want robots to crank out returns and workpapers.

All the legal “theories” about why it was “illegal” and voided any enforcement of the note was just pure garbage......promoted by foreclosure defense attorneys, along with all kinds of other bogus “defenses” so they could collect large fees from homeowners fighting foreclosure.....all the while the attorneys knowing these defenses were bogus, knowing they would never win, but it gave them a way to sell their services to desperate homeowners.Here in FL it was an ever changing shift in new “marketing theories”........”show me the note” “invalid assignments”, “FL 5 year Statute of Limitations”, etc.Yes, there was a lot of sloppy work by banks and their foreclosure attorneys, and some improper short cuts....robot signing, etc.  

And tech such as driverless cars, robotics, AI will make a huge impact over the next 20 years.

Big businesses like Google, Uber, Apple, Facebook and Autodesk..even ARGO AI from Ford..have paved the way for Pittsburgh's tech makeover fueled by CMU's robotic, sciences and technological innovations.

I currently work for a sub-sea robotics company managing the engineering park where I facilitate all necessary testing on prototype components prior to production.

i think so too, all the robotics happening now, city will bounce back big time.

:-) I saw a robot that can paint house interiors on "The Gadget Man" on Netflix.

What I’ve been debating is pausing my recurring robot advisor deposits (about 12% of my overall “extra cash” each month) and channel that into my REI fund (about 35% percent of my extra cash)I think you made some great points @Bill F.

I knew from Rich Dad Poor Dad that house is not an asset, still I couldn’t help making a stupid investment decision because of my programming (in robot voice “need to own my home”).
