I were to make a living on investing, directly or indirectly, I would call myself an investor. If I were to make a serious amount of money on investments, I would call myself a serious investor. I am none of that but just dabbles on the side and make some money at the bottom line while having fun! Next when people talk about investing in a new home, I get the shakes. We bought our place in San Diego 8 years ago because we liked it and because we (my wife...) wanted a place there. Sure, it has come out to be a great "investment", but that isn't the reason we bought it but rather a pleasant side effect. Sometimes when one talks to people about their homes, it all comes down to how much money they made on that "investment" and in particular how Clinton made them millionaires by lifting the ceiling for un taxed home capital gains to 500k back in 1997 or so. Makes me sick when people turn the happy facts of life upside down and prevails on the money view. All those small Rockefella wannabes. Taro
