Yeah, I'm on my second stint of reading Ponyfans for a living in 2008 as of last week...tough year.
Commercial RE broker/lender/investor (all over the last 18 months...again, tough year)
residential subdivision developer
did I mention I'm a Real Estate Finance student...
Keep it up - I was going to go back and get a real estate mba at the University of Chicago and one of the professors said save your money and work through this fiasco if I can survive and I will be able to handle anything that comes my way in the future.

The Big Lebowski: Are you employed, sir?
The Dude: Employed?
The Big Lebowski: You don't go out looking for a job dressed like that? On a weekday?
The Dude: Is this a... what day is this?
The Big Lebowski: Well, I do work sir, so if you don't mind...
The Dude: I do mind, the Dude minds. This will not stand, ya know, this aggression will not stand, man.

I am long heading into January for a number of reason but expect to be short equities for 10-11 months in 2009.
