The housing market in the US is rotting away and the housing market in my country seems to be booming. Everywhere I look people are building houses, housing projects and gated communities. Practically all national sites are advertising homes for sale or rentals. The prices are good(if you know where to look), the houses look great and there are new projects every day.
What does this tell me?
The elections are coming up. Period.
The election year and the year leading up to it are the best times to buy housing or seek government funding. They will do anything to get that vote and then forget you even exist when they get into office.
Man I love politics.

I've already set my S.M.A.R.T. goals, now just for fun I will be setting my D.U.M.B. goals.
What are D.U.M.B. goals?
D.U.M.B. is an acronym for:
Dangerously
Unattainable,
Monstrously
Big
There are at least 2 other meanings for this acronym but all authors do agree that D.U.M.B. goals are virtually unattainable. D.U.M.B. goals encourage you to reach far farther than you thought possible. It's about writing down your dreams and secret(or not so secret) desires. Here you let your imagination soar.
So what are my D.U.M.B. goals for 2009?
- Double my net income withing the year
-Buy a brand new Toyota Harrier by Januari as a New year's gift to myself
-Go on a 2 week vacation in the Bahamas

-Go on vacation in Rome
-Buy myself a new Iphone and Blackberry also in Januari (more gifts yay!)
-Get my BsC by December 2009 (that means a 2 months to intern and to write my thesis)
