There are soft drinks available at restaurants?

I don't know.. there might be a soft landing...   25% corporate income tax definitely encourages a lot more investment.

Hi,Does anyone have suggestions for a company or individual that does soft money lending or full doc non-conforming renovation loans at reasonable rates at 6-8%?

So we go to the wilderness to a secluded beach (our normal route)... but as we fly through the brush, on a HOT curacaoan day... the horses get thirsty and tired. 

A lack of self discipline, and just plain being too soft is what makes people fail.

Many of the industry experts who are claiming that the chance for a real estate crash is small, are the same ones that in 2006 were talking about the "soft landing" for the market.Disclosure: My forum posts are not a substitute for professional advice.

Very well said Scott and thank you for the soft mention, Jay. 

Momma said, speak softly and carry a BIG stick. 

If they don't.... well if you read any of my other things on PM I speak of my philosophy of management called an "Iron Fist in a Velvet Glove", the soft approach doesn't work, than it's all Iron Fist, and I mean that in the most tyrannical ruler means possible, the only measure I have stronger than that is when I call up the lawyer which we refer to as "The Hand of God" because thats the level of destruction she can bring down. 

Your real estate investment will work much harder than that.The one thing I would say is that your emergency fund may be a little soft.
