Out of school for thirty-five years now, grasshopper. Retired and living in the lap of luxury for nearly six. It's rarefied air up here alright. Not so many have what it takes to get here.

They do recognize bubbles. This one claims that the San Diego housing is not in a bubble using the 2002-2006 bubble as reference. If one uses the real estate cycles previous to 2002-2006 as reference, the current cycle lies well outside those boundaries, perhaps by 15 percent.

Rich Toscano = small-fry local neophyte blogger with no grounding at all in the meaning, nature, or history of bubbles in the modern world. He uses the word as a mimic -- meaning that he heard it used somewhere before.

Getting rich on making government loans. They're making nearly 5 percent off of the loans originated.

580 is the minimum credit score that the government's low downpayment programs will accept.

Stability. A home in America comes with fun things like due process property rights and a ton of relatively rich neighbors. Oh and there could be a building on it as well. That stability was once matched in Japan. And property values rose to meet it.

Japan was in a bubble. Dollar-yen exchange rate was halved in a short period of time of about 3-5 years through joint intervention among the central banks. It attracted foreign investment which drove up asset prices. The combination of the weak US dollar and high domestic wages and asset prices eventually caused manufacturing to move offshore in the early 90's.
