Oh heck if the world's really ending I'll rent a beach house on the Pacific Ocean and blow all my money on shrimp, wine and chocolate while I watch the waves break.

If the world is coming to an end in 2012, then I'm gonna rent. Not gonna waste time looking for a house, applying for a mortgage, sign mounds of paperwork, sit in some attorney's office (or title company) to sign papers at closing, cough up all that money for downpayment and closing costs, and then worry about maintenance, upkeep, or paying taxes. I'm gonna take all that money I saved, rent, and enjoy the rest of my measly life!

The guy in Speng's photo must've been a little short on his down payment. I hear you can swing all kinds of deals in this rocky market. Rent to own, house swaps, organ donation...

Hmm lets see... if I buy now I'll be paying more then rent in carrying costs* almost anywhere in the country and my house will continue to decline in value every year until the end of the world in 2012.

RENT UNTIL THE WORLD ENDS YOU WILL BE BETTER OFF!

(*mortgage + property tax + insurance + upkeep/repairs + maybe association dues)

I can just see the NAR commercial now.  A smoky backshot of a man in a long dark robe in mysterious area with stone looking walls and a grey table in front of him with a form draped with a dripping red cloth. As the camera pans, you see that it is not in fact a ritual in a stone temple, but instead a dingy common basement laundry room with cheap grey formica, a pile of wet laundry with a red tablecloth, crappy light and rusty washing machines pushed into the corner. As the pitiful renter, slogs his wet laundry up the stairs the voice over starts spewing the NAR spin about low rates, the Mayan calendar and tells you it's a great time to buy. After all who wants to die in someone else's house. Don't die a renter, buy today.

Good one Rob.  You should try to copyright that slogan so at least you get paid when the NAR starts using it in their next series of ads.  Unfortunately, what you post in jest makes as much sense as everything that has come out of the NAR from the last several years.
