Something smells in balata!!!

http://money.cnn.com/2007/10/24/real_estate/details_on_new_Countrywide_plan/index.htm?postversion=2007102510

What the heck!!! We knew it was coming. The real question is why are we sucumbing to the needs of individuls that are now getting bailed out for making poor financial decisions.

I would really like to know, why are we now providing ARM interest rate locks on teaser loans, because the poor fools or the once thought savy real estate investors now have to take it in the shorts.

Oh poor me boo who... Who's going to bail me out now. I made a risky investment and got caught with my pants down. Oh please help me and bail me out!!!

So why can't I just walk into the bank and re-negotiate my loan. Why can't I just say oh poor me I just didn't understand and I am about to lose my home.. So please mister banker please adjust my home loan and make it affordable for me.

The problem with that is.... I did know better!!! I take accountability for the loan documents I signed with my name!!! I did not put all life and limb out on the edge of a willow tree branch hoping it wouldn't break or 'bust'.

Let's stop making excuses as a whole. Let's started holding people accountable. Oh wait that would mean we might actually have to start really impeaching presidents.

What a sad state of affairs.

So why should I continue on paying more every freaking day for my home financing, than the sobbing poor shmuck about to pay 11.0 % on a freaking home loan? Because I chose to take a safer route?? Why should that idiot be able to skate free on a teaser loan rate and keep it.

Something stinks here,, and it ain't right.

What's in store for us, only the one knows.

Hopefully the wind will shift directions and I won't have to smell this stench anymore.

But alas probably wishfull thinking.

The New Year is HERE!!

The new year is here and thankfully I am here as well to enjoy the new year or at least try to make it through it to next year. The new year does not look bright though. However optimistic you want to be. A lot of uneasiness in the air. Nothing that is not in the media constantly. It is amazing how hum drum the world is right now. High oil prices, high gas prices, and a sagging housing market to say the least. The political race is on and what promises we will hear. Who will it be, only the future knows. However, it does not look bright no matter who makes it to office. Can you say the big A word if who should be in office makes it to the office. And do we really need another Clinton in office. The billions spent on a war that cannot be won. Still trying to instate democracy in country's that don't want it and still trying to help the worlds hunger and poverty while AMERICANS go hungry and starving without shelter in our own country. Not a lot of technological advance that wil

get rich or die trying

http://money.cnn.com/2007/10/05/pf/retirement/cash_from_401k.moneymag/index.htm Well a little cliche, buttttt ... So for those that have scoffed at all be it most 401 k wild projections. Seeing something like this really is a nice change of pace. The problem with most investments is, they are mostly projections. If they pan out great. However the Roth IRA is not a bad deal. $15500.00 seems like a lot of money for most people. Think about it if you started a Roth IRA @ say age 20 and saved just $100.00 a month. Well guess what in say just under 13 years you would have met that amount. Even though $15500.00 is the maximum contribution amount a year for a R oth IRA. In this article it is also used as a wow factor. for a 20 year investment : "Put your money in a Roth 401(k) and you'll end up with $72,245 tax-free in 20 years" However, the numbers don't lie. If you did in fact place $15500.00 in an account and let it sit earning interest amortized @ an 8 % interest rat
