The days of Wine and Roses are Beer and Popcorn.

Today Is the first day of the rest of my life as the saying goes.

In today's market with 12 month or more inventories and ever slowing sales, With price reductions daily and time on the market increasing isn't it time for a wake up call. What is it going to take to get people to listen when we have to tell them that " yes" your neighbors Home did sell a year and a half ago for more than I'm telling you today but that was the Days of Wine and Roses and today has become Beer and popcorn.

Everyone can afford to have a beer but the joys of a fine glass of wine are becoming harder to enjoy, Even though the wine is available everywhere the cost will keep out the beer drinkers. In my area we enjoyed the beer drinkers for many years until all of the sudden a few wine drinkers came here and started turning the beer into wine which caused our beer drinkers to try and become fine wine drinkers.

They wanted the wine and did whatever they could to get it. Even though they really could not afford the wine they kept buying the bottles in hopes they could sell there bottles for better bottles. After awhile of course everyone had a bottle so no one wanted anymore. Well we all know that wine can turn into vinegar if not taken care of properly and now the beer drinkers are trying to sell there wine before it turns into vinegar.

Of course the first wine drinkers have now moved on to another trend  "Stocking up " which has caused that market to break records "But that is another story".

Meanwhile we now see these Former beer drinkers turning there wine back into beer and some even losing the bottles of Wine they worked so hard to get. And the fine wine drinkers are getting there bottles back turned into vinegar which is causing these people to ask for help from the brewers.......

That does not change with the market. Some things are just GOOD.
