schadenfreude oder pr / propaganda ?

denke schon das schadenfreude erlaubt ist wenn der boss aller immobilienmakler auf seiner hütte sitzen bleibt.

wenn ihr bock habt den ganzen bericht zu lesen erscheitn diese schon wieder in einem etwas anderem licht. ist mehr oder minder ein pr/propaganda artikel nach dem motto "hätt ich doch gleich auf meinen makler gehört" traurig aber in den usa heutzutage leider nicht unüblich.

A Humbling Lesson for Realtors' President
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/09/08/AR2006090800760.html

He, of all people, should have known better.

The president of the National Association of Realtors, Thomas M. Stevens of Vienna, admits he didn't follow his agents' advice when the real estate market started to cool. That, he says, is why his old house in Great Falls has now been on the market for a year at the price of $1.45 million.

"What I should have done," confessed the senior vice president of NRT Inc., parent of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, "was listened to my agent and cut the price by $50,000 to $100,000 early on, and the property would have sold last October."

Or, even better, he said, "I should have listed it a month earlier," when the market was only just beginning to lose air.
