Hard choice!
Via ZeroHedge: For $27,000 you could buy ONE BOTTLE OF CHAMPAGNE in the Jue Lan restaurant. I didn't make up the name. Wish I had.
OR
Via Zillow: For $28,000 you could buy this neat 3-bedroom pure bungalow in a decent part of Ponca.
Oh dear. Choices choices choices.
ZeroHedge or Zillow? NYC or America? Jue Lan or Ponca? Champagne or bungalow? A few swallows of poison or years of pleasure and security? Can't possibly make up my mind.
JEEEEE SUSSSSS. We are fucked.

Later thought of a better comparison, house vs house. This house in Vancouver (aka Chi Lan):
was featured a few months ago as the peak craziness of the Chi Lan bubble. A fair comparison because it's sort of bungaloid if not pure bungalow. Finished basement makes it somewhat larger, but the lot is smaller and the condition is worse. For $28k you could buy about 1.5% of this house, as indicated by the red square.
Well, which do you want? Five ratty shingles or an entire nice house? Hard choice!
