    The Great Gatsby - Remake in the Works

    Interestingly, here's a nugget people are probably not aware of. Fitzgerald was a friend of the DuPont family of Delaware (of gunpowder fame). It was rumored in the late 'teens that one of the family crashed his car and buried it after killing a dog. This was before Gatsby was written....the car...

    No, no hipsters there. Just lots of beach and funny little eateries. And hundreds of people dressed in Abercrombie or Old Navy, lol!!

    Passive Resistance?

    I do not know, because my mortgage broker, who got the same fee no matter how much of a mortgage I took, told me that based on what he'd seen over the previous quarter it probably wasn't worth the time to go to the 3rd especially as it's rates weren't as good. So I ended up going for 80% of...

    This is why I buy locally-grown food where possible, use a diesel as my daily driver, and buy used furnishings and computers.....and always pay cash :)

    Why!!!! Hipsters!!! Why!!!!!

    Not surprised, hehe. Shoegaze is popular in Philly right now. The only plus of living in Deluwhere? is that Philly is close-by, as are Baltimore and D.C. Philly for a little culture, Baltimore for a gritty night out, D.C for when you want something really good to eat :P Just all those damned...

    It's the one thing that keeps the whole thing going, Lizzie. You too can become a millionaire, if you work hard in school, and already have family or friends who are rich enough to fund your College and your first foray into business....

    Passive Resistance?

    I was working with a broker who used HSBC, Citi and BoA....... If there were a truly independent inquiry, I am sure that banks were already seeing the writing on the wall regarding the sub-prime mortgages, and were trying to lend higher amounts to people they knew would and could pay in the...

    Haha!!! I was at Underground Arts the other day on Callowhill.........I think that qualifies as a hipster venue. The bartender had a handlebar moustache.....

    Passive Resistance?

    Exactly. Unless you already have a small fortune, the markets and corporate America are a giant ponzi scheme. People should try and be happy with what they have, rather than allowing themselves to be force-fed to want to over-achieve

    Passive Resistance?

    I'm going to chime in here. I applied for a mortgage with several banks during the boom. I did not want to live beyond my means, and chose a modest pricerange within which to look for a home. EVERY BANK I APPLIED TO PRE-APPROVED ME. Now, here's the rub.....when it came to UNDERWRITING, I was...
