Can you believe that Fake and Racist Faux News never mentioned the indictment of Trump Organization on their blog. The only thing they focused on is the racial incidents in America couple with the Jan 6 Commission Speaker Pelosi is trying to start. That is the blog the Coons here loves like a gospel from the holy book.

Buddy, you are 100% right. Every Westerner knows the price of houses fluctuates. It depends with the economy and the general mood of the country. You can list your house for $1 million and end up selling it for $450K. One good thing my wife did is that she refuses to refinance our mortgage even when the interest rate was 3%. Now I am happy that she knocks some sense into my brain about not refinancing.
Up here in Canada, never seen that happen except the house is located in some village with no civilization. Immigration is helping home owners here build equity at a fast pace.

National average cost of homes in 1985 was around 100k. At the moment, It's around 700k, and it keeps increasing every year.

They are sure taking their time.
Definitely. They got so many things they can nail Trump on that he's a ticking time bomb. Don't forget the District of DC Attorney General and State of Maryland still have a case against him. I will not be surprised if he commits harakiri or just suffer a massive heart failure with the pressure on him and there is no Presidential immunity to cover for all his numerous crimes.

It's better to see a house as a home first if one is not in the business of flipping houses. Then one wouldn't have to bother so much about rise and fall in value.

It's like that most times in US too but there are numerous cases of people losing money on their houses.

Homes are major parts of Americans wealth all things considered. We bought our 1st home which is still our primary residence about 22 years ago for $245.000 and the last appraisal we had done is that it's worth almost $600.000 now with just few months to pay off our mortgage. The first thing you learn in a Business School in America is that you build your wealth first through home ownership.
Egbon, don't let Umudike Republicans hoping for N200K salary see this now. Temper flossing with mercy.

I would expect more gains after 22 years sha. It's like Americans are learning work when it comes to the British and property price increases. I've done 94% in 11 years on my first flat and 42% on the family home in just over 6 years. But I find nothing gains more growth than pensions due to the tax relief. That one is instant doubling of money.

You nailed it again. We have what we call two and three flats that we leased out to people and those ones are just like business incomes to us and when we were new in doing that, we got in trouble with IRS and it's not pleasant. We were taking tax deductible items out of the 5 two and three flats we leased out not knowing we can't under the law. We learned very fast though. Home ownership has turned many people in Europe and America to Millionaires.

Correct Buddy. I was lucky my wife forced me to buy our home three months after I finished my MBA. It was rough in the beginning as you know but now, I am grinning from ear to ear seeing the benefits of owning your own stuff. Imaging converting that kind of dough to Nigerian Naira and the poverty cursed unpaid coon driving a fvcked up 20 year old truck think he's the best thing in his village since the discovery of yellow garri.

You are correct about pensions too. Once in a while when I look at my 401K, I say thank you to the Good Man above because I know I don't have to depend on any children in my old age to live a very good life.

Pensions are actually better than property to me depending on the tax regime in your jurisdiction. For me I get £1 added to my pensions for every 48 pence I put in. That's instant doubling and then you let the stockmarket give you yearly gains as well ontop. The only caveat is you cannot access your pension tax free here till 55

Similar to my plan as well. Employer matches contributions with more than what I actually put in. I don't bother much about how the money is invested by the pension plan, however I also also use the pension as tax relief at tax filing period.

It's not like that in US. I have my pension at my job and I have my 401K that my company matches my contributions monthly. That 401k is attached to the stock market and thankfully, if you stay in the market for long. It will be a Bull Market which means Chaching in your Bank Account.

It makes sense. Which other investment can double your money instantly? Just delay gratification small till you reach the age you can access it, and if you die before then, it goes to your family which is the reason we all save anyway.

Maybe it is because of my line of work. I follow my portfolio religiously and I will even call my broker to buy some stocks that I feel comfortable with. I learnt that early in the game when Bush Jnr bleeped the economy up in 2007 due to the Iraq/Afghanistan wars. I monitor my 401K like an eagle look for something to pick up.

So your pension contributions are taxed at source? In UK, it's tax free up to £40k per year.

Tucker Carlson told associates he voted for Kanye, not Trump


He’s one of Donald Trump’s most vociferous backers. But Tucker Carlson has told multiple people that he voted for pop star Kanye West last year instead.

Shortly after the presidential election, the Fox News host started telling some program guests that he had cast his ballot for West, according to two people familiar with those conversations. Given Carlson’s fierce on-air commentary in favor of Trump, the guests were left wondering if Carlson was serious or merely joking.

Oh, broken news.

Criminal trump has opened a new social media site and like all his other endeavors will this last even a year? I mean anonymous is waiting to hack it, FBI is waiting to get the source code messages and who would even advertise on that shit?

He calls it GETTR as in GET HER, would have been more direct if he named It GRABBR, like Grab her by the pussy?

Depends on the kind of Pensions you get. Some are tax free till you are 62 and some you pay taxes on the spot if you borrow money out of your Pensions. I knew a colleague from Ghana who borrowed $50.000 from his Pensions to build a mansion in Accra, he ended up paying penalty on the funds because it's not due for pickings.

Some powerful men somewhere are plotting the downfall of Rupert Murdoch. He is the real MSM. Australia is tired of him, the UK is finding ways to get rid of him. The cancer he created has killed more people than ISIS and Alqaeda, Boko Haram etc
