Sounds just like Australia, then. No news here.

Came here to say this. Currently looking at something 40-50 minutes out from my office during peak hour (30mins outside of peak periods) and will be looking at approximately half my income on repayments. And that's with a 20% downpayment!

I had assumed that California was this impossible-to-buy-a-house place but 20 minute commute and spending 40% of my income on a house?!! Sign me up! This is the stuff dreams are made of.

Nope! I don't see my Canon 1DX Mark II + 35mm f/1.4L II being replaced by my iPhone any time soon... and the photos I get from family at restaurants are gorgeous compared to what I can do with a phone camera.

This proves that the Airbus A380 is 100% unsafe to fly and will result in death if you board one.

Please tell all your friends - I'm hoping that I get some cheaper A380 seats when I travel later this year if we can lower demand.
