Dude, I think it's been about 3 years. You ever going to quit beating that horse. Man, it stinks pretty bad.

>> Americans are buying stock and borrowing money to buy things -- including but no limited to homes.

GST, I don't know how any conclusion can be drawn about the relationship between the REPORTED savings rate and stock prices. This reported rate has been low for years. Yet stock prices have been up, down, and all around during this time. If you overlay savings rate on a nasdaq chart, you will not see any relationship. Neither leading, trailing, nor co-incident.

you may have seen these sad articles about folks here cashing in their options in 2000 to buy a 1500 sq ft house for a million or whatever (believe me, they do cost that much or more in some neighborhoods here, just as i'm sure they do in diamond head). only to be hit with six figure tax bills they can't begin to pay for with what the stock is now worth. the article offers tips on strategies: who to pay first (CA over IRS), etc. this is a nightmare.
