The "R" word

By
Real Estate Agent with ReMax Services

Morning everyone.... just was wondering what the rest of your opinions and thought s were for those that might have watched some of Warren Buffet's interview yesterday. What do you propose the worlds 3rd richest man is implying? So much negativity on one side and on the other hand a survey that MSNBC took said that 76% of Americas are saying that they have had any problems in obtaining a mortgage loan....but yet the market is getting killed and the economy is increasingly slowing down....so let's except it... the "R" word is truly in place BUT now the question is....what do we do? Stop dwelling on it...make a plan and execute! It's not as bad as it seems at least not as bad as it was back in 73-74 and nearly 1/2 of all Americans are saying that they are NOT going to cut back on the spending habits..so let's pick up...brush our shoulders off and move on. We need to go through this cycle learn from it and make it better for our children's future. What goes up must come down and this wheel will keep turning.

I saw that clip.  I always think that it is amazing that the media dooms and glooms us to death, then right at the end, like a side note, they say that it is not so bad, and not as bad as it was in the '70s.  Instead of making the positive information the lead story, they just sort of mumbled it at the end.  I just say I live better now than ever before.  Yes, you have to budget, but being negative will just make it worse.

I don't believe in being negative.  There are positives even in the negative things.  I like you believe that we will come out just fine.  As the song the little children sang, "Shake the enemy off".  Those of us who want to get up and move forward will but we know that there will always be some that are left behind.  It's your mindset.
