Mr. Reeves needs to go out and get a better job. Selling furniture is iffy even in a good market; he ought to have been able to see the writing on the wall when the real estate market started to go south. No reason for him to stick with that job now.

If I were in danger of losing my house, I’d sell my stuff on Ebay, take a second job on weekends and/or evenings, do whatever it takes.

You mean you wouldn’t go to Europe for the 2nd time in 12 months?

A relative that is losing her house in August did that. She also went to Florida, but it was on a “cheap ticket”.

Actually, he might be in a position where he knows that he makes 3 times as much in a good market as bad and figures it’s still worthwhile to hold out rather than take some salaried job paying one-third what he used to make.

That said...furniture sales isn’t exactly the same as selling industrial supplies or even real estate when it comes down to money potential.

BINGO!!!! And, Duh!!!

But of course, you'll NEVER see that solution in the MSM. It's like people are stuck in amber, they can't change jobs and better themselves. Which is what will happen if we ever let socialism totally take over in this country (we're pretty close now).
