I live in a spanish-style hillside home in los angeles, california. i paid $900,000 in 1995. it's perhaps worth about $3m now. thankfully, i paid off my mortgage before the crash because i could see it coming. i worried that i would be caught having to pay off a very high mortgage for a house i couldn't sell.

Even though it was january, in los angeles it was beautiful and sunny and the blue skies were out and it was hot everyday, so i think it was just a product of our environment. and california to me as a concept or as an idea always seems like endless optimism and endless opportunity - when people think of california they think of palm trees and blue skies and gorgeous sunsets and beaches and everything else. but there's also this weirdness to california, this darkness, it's a place where people come to follow their dreams and sometimes don't make it.
