General Discussion

Everyone in this area is "booked up" with so many projects they won't even come out and give me an estimate. Can't get a roof, can't get a bathroom or kitchen remodeler, can't even get an electrician out here to update my wiring. I take that as a sign that people have the money to hire these professionals, and that the trade professionals themselves are doing so well they have to turn down business.

Personally, I am much better off. Most of my savings are in index funds, and they are doing quite well.
