According to a friend in Palm Coast the realtors haven't got the message yet that covid is over
 
Stats I heard....

50% of all consumer spending is from the top 10%.

The bottom 60% account only for 20% of consumer spending. The bare necessities only.
The way I see it we have three 10 percenters right here....

Health Insurance Premiums Could Rise More Than 80% Next Year​

Was ACA a benefit to Americans ?
Wrong thread. There are lots of healthcare threads here already. To answer your question, yes I know lots of people it benefited because they could not even get health insurance before due to pre-existing conditions. However the issue with the way the law works is it was being used to subsidize Medicare with more unfunded benefits, not to mention grift for the health care industry. So conceptually a good idea, but as usual too much pork.

Economy is slowing and people can no longer afford these boats.
Covid cash all gone and so are sales.

Same for RV industry.
Sometimes I feel like I am living in an alternate universe. Call me crazy, it is possible maybe I feel this way now retired. But darn, boats just seem more expensive than ever (out of reach to the general public) and I have been buying my own boats since 18 years old.

Heck, if I want a simple 19 foot outboard runabout a 200 Hp engine alone is $20,000 without the boat and trailer. You know? Make that a 150 hp engine at $15,000 if looking to save money keeping in mind that is just the cost of the engine without a boat and without installing it.

I think it's me, not feeling wealthy anymore. I have two nephews with 6 figure boats, young families. I used to feel wealthy *LOL* but I still think they are an outlier vs the general public.

I think I know the answer. Many new purchasers routinely take out 15 year loans as it is all about the payment right? Is 15 still a standard or is 20 years the new standard?
