Uh, how many of those do you think are millennials? Median income peaks after WGs cutoff. There’s definitely a group of people making money, it’s also over represented some places. It’s also highly perceptionally over treated by mediaQuote:

or
I can rent my house for 3-4 times what it costs me a month which is the fair market value
I can sell my house on the open market and reap millions in profit
is it my fault I got here years ago is it my fault other people "made" me buy a house even though I didn't want to is it my fault I moved to a ski town in the 90s even though that was the last thing I ever planned on doing?
I'm not the one asking where adironskier is coming from. Don't really care-I find it entertaining and remembered some kevo comments so merely pointed it out. My thoughts on the matter were back in the thread a ways. I guess I could say do your own research but I don't care enough to even say that. We're so inundated with immigration (not just CA) and those people trying to change things that my apathy is showing. I have a pretty good deal going so I'll keep doing that. Some may say harnessing my inner fastfred. Peace be with you.Quote:

I’ve been to Noma twice if you’re gonna dick wave. You should get out more - might curb that rage.Quote:

Does that make me a hypocrite? And when I was forced to sell last year, I didn't sell for pennies on the dollar, I sold for market value. Does that make me a hypocrite? And now that I am back to renting, I am hoping for a market crash, does that make me a hypocrite?Quote:

It seems a lot like the people who complain about all the new people moving to town, making it crowded, when they did the same thing just 5, 10, or 15 years ago. I moved to Colorado 30 years ago, and I do complain about the crowds, but not about the people who move here. I get why they do, it's the same reason I did.
If you want to misread a post and get indignant like adironrider, have at it. I’ve got an interest in traditional foods and it’s generally not to the taste of someone who’s been to noma twice, hence my point.Quote:

better to double down on your butthurt, to argue current live ability and culinary prowess is predictive of future live ability and culinary prowessQuote:

He also didn't understand it completely and based some comments on things he had heard, not how the statutes read. Some people thought that was ironic. The classic comments were made. We all get it. It will keep happening. I'm past it and don't blame anyone for it. Since you are not doing your own research, I will also say most of us said no hard feelings, I'm sure we would get along in real life etc.
I don't know why you felt the need to get in AR's ass over it. I don't know why I felt the need to provide a possible reason for AR's comments. Really-I appreciate a lot of what Kevo writes in a lot of different threads. Good luck to you and the market crash that will get you back to where you want to be.
It's quite a conundrum.
Croissants are from Austria? Who knew?

I've been in 3 different situations (just visiting!) in just the past couple of weeks (inner city, farm country and a resort area) where people were bemoaning the new people buying and moving in and the changes and the higher prices. They're all against the new people but the oldtimers that sold to them get a pass. Why is that?
They're jerks too. We're surrounded by assholes.
