welcome to 2009

Welcome to 2009 to all those still in the financial games!

Many pundits are predicting what 2009 is going to bring to the markets this year but we are withholding judgement until we have more time to analyze where we stand.

The holiday has wrought havoc with our ability to get to a television or computer. Family time is a rare commodity if you are lucky enough to remain in business in the housing market especially in Florida.

Mortgage business is still going strong and we are a looking forward to partnering with even more battle scarred realtors, builders, and other partners in the florida mortgage game.

We look forward to another year of sharing financial news, info, and commentary with the community. Our weekly polls will continue into the new year and we hope that we can begin to interview one person from each opinon which will give people the opportunity to market themselves a bit for free :)

Happy new your to everyone and may god bless you and your families.

Weekly Poll Results for December 5th

The question of the week was Your estimate for when the economy will begin recovery?

The results were as follows:

100% of the responders said 2009

This is encouraging that the majority of the people at least in our little community are optimistic about our economic chances for next year. Does this have something to do with the incoming Presidential administration? Perhaps it is more a positive responce to the efforst of the Feds to stave off a deeper recession?

Time will tell. We will continue our efforst to inform and encourage your participation so that we can all benefit from a greater understanding of the financial world we live in!

We thank those that took time to participate in the survey. Unfortunately no one left any comments with their contact information so we were not able to do any interviews. Hopefully this week we will be able to provide an interview along with the poll results.
Please remember to not only participate in the poll but to drop a comment with your contact info so we can interview you!

Poll of the week results for week ending 11/28/2008

The question posed in last weeks poll was What will have a bigger impact on the economy from new president?

The results were as follows:
60% said Ending the war in Iraq
20% said A new stimulus package
20% said A foreclosure moratorium
The overwhelming majority feel that ending the costly war in Iraq will free up enough capital that we can focus on rebuilding our economy at home.
