Housing gains in Florida: scary stuff. Almost Anybody and EVERYBODY can get rich fast after moving a few times every two years.

Ah, the greed (forget fear). So juicy- makes one's mouth water. Wonder if I had been there six years back if I would've had the gumption or guts to do it - even if it was explained to me 'how to'. ... Nah. Not now either.

Does not seem quite right though, making money that fast in real estate. Taken me forever to get just a comparatively small pittance of gains in my real estate buys. Maybe I just don't have a real estate mind -I buy in wrong areas, wrong timing - coupled with a no guts/no glory stomach -- fearful of all that debt. Guess I be too old and too slow to play the game.

I am visiting my in laws now in the tucson area. they just moved here recently. although I think the desert environment is facinating, I am surprised at the cost of living in the desert. My in-laws mentioned a new development going up near some world famous spa where lots are going to be sold for $300M a piece. This seems pretty absurd to me.
