Here it is folks. The good news keeps rolling in. Not only is the economy on fire - not only is real estate on a HUGE HUGE roll - not only are banks not affected by the US sub prime mess but once again

Vancouver ranked Number 1 by the Economist Magazine for livability

Vancouver has been ranked the best place to live in the world for the fifth year in a row in a survey by the Economist magazine, while Toronto took fifth place out of 132 cities.

The two Canadian cities rank among the top five because they have low crime rates, little threat from instability or terrorism, and a highly developed transport and communications infrastructure, says the survey by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU).

In your desire for making money are you on the way to making Vancouver an unlivable city? Already the builders are modeling their apartments on the Japanese and Hong Kong model (meaning tiny pigeon holes, sold for outrageous prices!)

One of the things I like about iTulip is that along with all the serious talk about the economy and financial markets, occasionally there is some real comedy.
