pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: so you make a commitment to a house that exceeds the commitment you make to the woman in question. seems a bad equity play. << it's a terrible equity play. but plebs don'
t think in terms of +ev, only in the emotional "nao"
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: decimation there used to be this thing that you're not a real woman if you give good head << missing a "don'
t" ?
pete_dushenski: mod6: perhaps the whole story won'
t be there in all its intricate detail, but the costume and set design in the 1935 version are truly splendid and well worth the squeeze
mod6: i'll have to watch that one. i don'
t think a film could ever do such a book justice.
mircea_popescu: the advantage of multi layered security : you get to know what the would-be attacker knows and what he doesn'
t.
mircea_popescu: (no, i didn'
t change it. i don'
t change passwords when a third party says so. i change them when i change them.)
mircea_popescu: done and that GGC would have no problem pre-selling the lots to pay for the land. He also told me that he had negotiated a deal in such a way that even if the full payment can'
t be made in time that we could extend it.
mircea_popescu: "Since I had already brought in thousands of leads to GGC throughout 2012 and the start of 2013 and Ken had begun to market this new property that GGC didn'
t even own I was very distressed. However, at the same time, the amount of interest was staggering. I knew there would be demand for a project like this but I was amazed how much interest there was. Ken again told me that this is just how these type of deals are
mircea_popescu: Also, he had hired some sales staff (all TDV readers) and all of them were emailing me telling me that what Ken had just done was crazy and he was trying to get them to sell a property that wasn'
t owned by GGC without any real details even about the property, how much water or water rights it had and whether it could be rezoned! They all said they were going to quit but Ken had begun to move forward and market it."
mircea_popescu: "A few months passed and there wasn'
t too much developing when I got an email from someone (not even Ken) in June of 2013 that he had just committed to purchase a property with secure water rights near the initial property for over $6 million... and it had to be paid in full within three months!
mircea_popescu: now he's spilling the beans. he couldn'
t do this post that same day.
mircea_popescu: Ken told me it wouldn'
t be a problem and he'd get it fixed. And, while I had already begun to market the property I was generally okay in knowing that the four founders had bought a large piece of property that, at worst, they could live on and/or resell and no one would get very hurt from this mistake.
mircea_popescu: Very quickly after the purchase of the property I received an email from Ken that there was a lot of errors and the property not only can'
t be rezoned for 3,000 lots but only for 12! And, it had no water rights for much more than 12 livable units!
mircea_popescu: listen kids. a) this isn'
t how any business works ; b) "totally normal" is no argument ; c) don'
t be this loser. don'
t be the 9 yo kid telling the tall tale about how you "nearly" got into a fist fight with the bad boys that ruined your sunday clothes.
mircea_popescu: By that point I had had enough. "I don'
t do business that way," I said, and nearly got into a fist fight with Ken Johnson over it. However he and the others all assured me that this was "totally normal" in the real estate business to do... and over time they, and especially Ken, talked me into doing it. Ken told me, "this is how the real estate business works."
mircea_popescu: My first thought was that it would be terrible to turn this serene, perfect mountain valley into a complete suburban-like area. And my second thought was, "3,000 lots? Doug Casey has been operating La Estancia de Cafayate for more than five years and hasn'
t even sold 200 lots!"
mircea_popescu: why the fuck do you think feminists don'
t go to hide in utah on a farm ? perhaps because they don'
t want to end up on the receiving end of the stick, like the mormons ?
mircea_popescu: but these are all practical considerations. i wouldn'
t do this even as a banal every day person.
The20YearIRCloud: And from what i've personally seen, working with people who buy, own ,maintain , manage, get divorced, declare bankrupcy, have their house burnt down, find radon/asbestos/lead paint, that overall real estate isn'
t a bad investment for your common guy
The20YearIRCloud: Why do you assume I don'
t have one, nor one could be easily armed/developed?
decimation: The20YearIRCloud: how would you plan to keep the 'raw land' if you don'
t have an army to help you?
decimation: that might be true, but it ain'
t 1900 anymore
decimation: The20YearIRCloud: many real estate agents don'
t make jack shit, only the good ones make $$$
mircea_popescu: well he keeps bringing the "we don'
t have X here". something he's gotta have, what is this, ohiostan ?
mircea_popescu: cuz you know, i can'
t be bothered to know in that level of detail, cuz my head is otherwise full.
mircea_popescu: The20YearIRCloud but my point isn'
t to any one specific thing. my point is, there's so much nuttery, and so much complexity involved, that in general you're better off letting someone else eat it.
decimation: The20YearIRCloud: don'
t you need to have an inspector come by before you rent?
mircea_popescu: The20YearIRCloud what happens if you don'
t get your triannual inspection for electric wires ?
mircea_popescu: just because you can "buy umbrella insurance" doesn'
t mean it's not there.
decimation: mircea_popescu: there's this thing in American culture that you aren'
t a 'real person' if you don'
t 'own' your home
mircea_popescu: there's this... can'
t be your own car mechanic. it's just not worth it.
decimation: mircea_popescu: I haven'
t done the narrowboats, are they a good time?
gernika: then there's the fact that when your house goes up in value, so does everyone else's, so its not like you can sell it and buy a bigger house. And if you don'
t buy another house with the proceeds of selling your house, you pay a lot of taxes.
decimation: ben_vulpes: don'
t forget the usg 'subsidy' of mortgages
decimation: they wouldn'
t believe that chumpatrons exist and that they were all likely to enter one
decimation: in taleb's antifragile, Fat Tony would have said that the chumps wouldn'
t believe you if you told them
