    US foreclosures - Boholt Seminars - NO

    You hear us arguing perhaps? Or as lawjs suggest she has one on the side? If she does can you take her away for away for a week or two? I have been trying to get a trip away with the boys over the line for a month or two now!

    I know it is offtopic but just to clarify a couple fo things around your post; M3 here / M2 in the USA is the qty of savings in the relavent country. Not the qty of legal tender. The US is printing money wildly precisely because their M3 is expanding in an aneamic fashion while interest...

    Wow this opportunity alone makes it seem like it would be worth moving to the USA.
