Its not worth my time and the frustration.Most of us work with clients worldwide. 

They are speculators not income investors.1) Crazy is relative, it's CA you decide. 2) They are not stupid they are gamblers. 3) There are no secrets (see #2), The market is being driven by overpaid, financially illiterate lemmings.

I take calculated risks, but I'm not a gambler and value my sanity.  

@Christina Luton If the numbers have some fluff in them, they can't tie back to the Financials, and they aren't willing to take a lower offer, they are looking for a sucker, an inexperienced investor, or a gambler to do this deal.I see deals all the time that are crap, yet I see people buying them, I also see these same assets showing up for sale 3-5 years later when that gambler bet didn't payoff.

Its feels like herd mentality.I remember reading an article stating the times (world wide) are similar to the tensions prior to World War I.

If any of you have access to the Cambridge Encyclopedia of the English Language, you can follow along with David Crystal's argument that English-language cultures worldwide, also known as BANA (British, North American, Australian) have always been progressively less linguistically open than most other European-origin cultures since the Viking conquests.The old joke says it all.What do you call someone who speaks many languages?
