annoying yes.... but property's better than any rolex with comes written on it!:)
Been on the lookout for a Comex SD for a while. Just tied up most of my cash for the foreseeable future in a property deal and I said to the wife last night 'I bet a COMEX comes up tomorrow'.
Low and behold, a guy I know phoned me to tell me there is one on eBay. Over priced at that cost but it turns out I know the seller!
Bloody way things turn out :(
(In truth, I obviously would put of a deal to buy a watch bit it made me laugh)

That's what I keep telling myself.
However, the Comex doesn't need complete refurbishment!
When the property bubble burst in 1995 I lost shed loads of money on the house I had bought in 1990 - life savings, 5 years or mortgage at around 12% and the gain on the previous sale; all gone. Now if I had bought a bag of Comex Sub's and a couple of Paul Newman Daytonas instead...
Come to Portugal and buy a nice little farm instead!
About luck......just wonder how much they paid the diver owner 20k?

No, but if I'd rented exactly the same house for 5 years instead of buying it I would have been considerably better off at the end. But, 20/20 hindsight and all that.
