I understand that most months I would not make a lot of money, if I could come close to breaking even I would be happy (I think $100 a weekend during an off month is a reasonable expectation for downtown Omaha) and then during Berkshire Hathaway shareholder meeting in May I think I could easily make over $1,000 and then over $2,000 during June and the College World Series (my condo would be a long walk or short cab ride to both events). 

The judge wants to make sure that the law was followed so as long as I have served the correct papers at the correct time and in the correct fashion I will not have a problem. 3. 

It was one hell of a ride and I learned a ton from that office.

I make money by buying low and riding the equity wave during the construction process. 

Old fashioned landlines sound the best but the difference is so tiny that it wouldn't affect my decisions one way or the other.

Im not saying you're wrong and you cannot say I am wrong because we hold different perspectives and choose to put our money in investments in different fashions.  

I live in Clearwater FL and have cash on hand to purchase however I am concerned that the real estate market is peaking and I don't want to buy high (I have a place that is ok to ride out the market so not in "need" to buy, just trying to buy right.Anyone feel that FL is still a good opportunity to buy?
