Las Vegas Real Estate - Amazing Growth

Written by: John

Since moving to Las Vegas I’ve been looking at all the real estate because like most people it would be nice for my wife and I to have a home. Too bad the search has been horrible since there are so many choices in Vegas. Not to mention most of the ones we just see around us are way out of our price range.

I hate all the real estate websites because you have to register and you can’t filter things well. However, I may just have found the solution. The site kind of looks cheaply coded, but the quality of the information is so much better than the nice looking websites. It’s called Million Savers(http://www.millionsaver.com/) and it has some great Las Vegas Real Estate available. Try out the search features that let you filter and narrow down your selection step by step. The way houses are sold in Vegas you just have to act quickly since real estate sells so fast.

One other thing I’ve thought about when looking at Las Vegas real estate is what will happen with the price. I don’t think the price dropping is ever a concern since every time they build a casino it requires thousands of more workers. If you have more workers then you need more houses. Simple supply and demand.

Tour de France Meets Google Earth - Sweetness!

I posted previously about a map tracking the Tour de France live. Google has now teamed up with the official Tour de France website to show the Tour de France on google earth.

They describe the experience perfectly:

Be sure to try out the tilt feature to see the truly daunting magnitude of all of those climbs where riders are battling it out in this year’s wide-open race. “Beyond Category” climbs? No thanks — we’ll stick to the flats and leave those verticals to the pros!

I actually like the climbs. At least on google earth.

Fast Loan Offers - Compare Everyday Loans

Written by: John

A new website(http://www.fastloanoffers.com) I found about loans says you can get everyday loans fast. Does it bother anyone else that loans are so easy to get? People aren’t even thinking about tomorrow. They just go and get a loan because it meets the immediate needs of today. Once the collectors come calling then you are in worse shape then before. If people didn’t use these fast loans and pay day loans people would stop offering them. So, it looks like the market is demanding them. Unfortunately, I think this might be the demise of our economy as we know it.

One good thing that Fast Loan Offers has is a link to a free credit report. That’s something worth having.

Also, why does a website that is offering loans as their business also have google ads on its page. That doesn’t quite make sense to me.
