Hey Garth,
Just a word from Calgary. I am 52 and divorced – read “make my own financial decisions”. I bought your book Greater Fool last spring. I urged 3 friends – all up to their ears in real estate that they would have to shift- to read it. They did and universally said it couldn’t happen in Alberta.
I sold my house in a small town south of Calgary last June for what I paid for it the year before (less $3000 after expenses)Â to some people from Canmore. It was an unconditional sale for me, (miracle) but they still haven’t sold their house in Canmore.
I’m currently house sitting just west of Calgary free rent with a really nice hot tub, my kids are travelling in Asia, (I might join them) and I have few expenses and I am waiting it out with my house equity in GIC’s. Hey, if that isn’t worth the price of a book what is. I think this year will belong to the coachable.
THANK YOU – I’ll be buying your next one, too.
Sandy
