I'm probably gonna get flamed as some sort of socialist, commie liberal by some but I just think this is wrong in so many ways! I can understand trying to find a way to sell your house in a bad housing market, but this borders on prostitution.

    Whats so wrong with prostitution?  A person can sell any other form of labor, but if it involves sex then theres a problem?  How is that logical? 

    Anyway, at $500k, thats one overpriced piece of ass.  You could get a dozen thai schoolgirls to service you night and day into your elderly years like you were god on earth for that kind of cash.

    I worked in the real estate industry for a few years, and a lot of people are irresponsible when buying a home - today people are overly cautious.

     

     

    She looks like she blows a lot of money (no pun intended).

     

     

    Stop buying.  Start renting.

    If this was a socialist country she would be shared with the community

    just couldn't resist myself...  Well she is tr...

    I find it amazing that by 2020 first world countries will be competing to get immigrants.

    I forget who said it,  but it was fairly insightful:

    "How can it be illegal to sell something that's perfectly legal to give away for free?"

     

    Anyhow, about the 'lady'. She's hoping that a European buys her house and they can fall in love and live in Europe? What the hell would a European want with a house in Florida? Anyone who lives in France and vacations in Florida needs a psychological evaluation. Sounds like she really just wants to sell herself for $500k (preferably to a European).

    George Carlin, RIP. I saw him say that in one of his many comedy specials HBO was showing last week.

    It all goes back to taxation.  If the government can't tax it, then you bet it is going to be illegal.
