I forgot the books you write.
November and April are perfect months to travel away from southern Ontario. You should go visit him and talk him to death.
The only thing Yamaha has learned is that everyone (including Cat) build a better sled than that can. That had to be humbling for the tuning fork crew. Christ - I’m surprised some Yamaha engineers didn’t commit hara-kiri over it.
No shit. Textron bought Cat and they build sleds for Yamaha. Well, unless you want a 10 year old chassis that was bottom of the pack even back then. The good thing Is you can buy a brand new sled just like yours - and it's still the same.
Oh it went “pop” the first weekend at the cottage! Every time I go past the spot where it blew I think about it. I was so pissed. I was 16 and bought the damn thing myself. It was my last Yamaha.
How much do they have to drop though. Your place is worth $310k call it. After fees you’ll pocket at most $290k
You will have costs to get back into the market.
You have costs to rent to live somewhere else.
Do you guys have to pay cap gains tax on your house? We don’t
Assuming you didn’t pay cash what’s left after paying off the mortgage? $75k?
If you’ve timed the market wrong it could continue to rise and even if it declines it might mean you are still offside on your numbers.
The smarter thing to do if you’re hell bent on “taking your profit” is to move to an area you like that you think will become more favourable over time. IMO better than exiting the market.
They are cliches but the important thing is time IN the market not timing the market. True wealth is created by ownership of assets not trading them. JMO.
