240 im scared dude comfort me.
i live in an apt... good move i guess lol.
hey, don't stress it though, dude. There are always highs and lows, ebbs and flows. The USA always comes out on top, and we definitely will this time. Everyone did really well from 2002 until 2006. That was the 'get rich' time for smart folks. When the war ends, there will be a hit, but we'll recover. A dem will likely take the white house, and we'll have 4 to 8 years of domestic recovery (reunite this place and fix up our country) before we find another world threat to stop/pilfer

history has always been like this. WWII, korea, vietnam, s.america, and now middle east. We attack a country, bring stability and a few bucks to our pockets, then use it to fix up the USA for 10 years. Then we go back to war for another 5 or 10. it's cyclical, and the reason we're a superpower!!
yes - apartment is a good move IMO, as the hit you would have taken in home value is worth the $ you wasted in rent when you couple in the great options you'll have in 2 years to buy.
