I see a lot of opportunity for a lot of people to make some serious money in these next few years.

Are you RE agent or Mortgage loans?

The price of decent land leases are going up and caps are going down. This tells me people are sick of the .001 money markets. Been looking for land leases for awhile and have one under contract now. The economy does seem to be improving......

A grande latte is six bucks at Starbucks inside Ceasars and the line is a mile long.

You can get a better Latte at Central for $4. Sure I can afford the $6 latte but I'm not stupid

$6 for a latte is just a plain waste of money. People will spend that every day and then complain that they cannot pay for their housing.

Where do you people live??!!!
I have not seen a single thing that shows improvement. Every day it is worse than the day before around here. Not one sign of looking up other than a few of the people sitting on their money are tired of sitting.

Oh, you must make ammo. That is one gig looking better.

Economy in TX never really suffered. My oilfield service company is doing very well.

The problem with my helicopter company is the drought is forcing all the cattlemen to reduce herds or sell out. Really sucks when 75% of my business is cattle work.
