    With an avatar of Greg Norman, and reference to a condo, it is understandable that people might get a picture in their head of someone older. Probably the calibre of high cost golf courses he plays also contributed to that impression by many people.

    To attach images they must be linked to the Internet, not your local files sytem on your computer.

    If the pic is small enough you can used Advanced settings and upload it, otherwise you will need to resize if first before uploading to the Ottawa Golf forum server.

    Those are my exact thoughts. Given the pictures, I would now assume EG is 26-30 years of age. Being 22 myself, I know it will be awhile until I play nice courses and live in a condo!

    For me it had nothing to do with the condo or the courses he plays or the amount he spent at Golf town.

    From the topics he choose to create and participate in actively I just figured he was an older guy bored at work. Like I"m sure many of us on this forum are.

    HAHAH! You guys are funny....

    I'll be 28 in a few months. I work in Alberta in the oil industry. That translates into very high income I guess for my age, so I guess I'm fortunate I chose this career.

    I'm not sure which type of threads someone of my age would be expected to start, but I wasn't aware the ones I was creating/participating in were the sort someone in their mid 40's would be interested in.

    P.S- I know people in Ottawa who are younger than me and have owned their own house or condo for 4 years, so someone speaking of condos shouldn't have any relation to their age in my opinion.

    At least for me, most people I know that own a condo are older. Mid 40s to early 50s. Probably the perception others got as well.

    The new trend are condos. It's simply the best investment you can make right now because the prices go up so quickly. The place I am in went from $169,000 to $210,000 from April of this year to now.

    Good investment on your part. And you posted your age too quickly. Peter just left work and I was trying to get your age out of him.

    Ah well...It was getting a bit ridiculous watching people guess from late teens to mid 40's...

    Not to mention, for me, a condo is perfect because there is no upkeep involved. I work 14 days 4.5 hours out of Edmonton and then am home 7 days in my condo.

    Dude, you spilled the beans too soon.

    I was going to say 26. The oilpatch thing was easy. I went to school with a bunch of Chem Eng types who did the 14 on / 7 off thing when they worked in the field.

    I'm far too good looking to post my photo on this forum. Dan wants to keep this clean, and I'm afraid the postings that would come in from the female contingent would be way too risqué! I think Richard described me as a drunk Alexander Daigle! LOL!!!

    Condos are perfect investments if you rent them out, not AS good if you live in them. Get a few of them, you'll be laughing the rest of your life.

    They are still good investments if you live in them for a short period of time, like I plan to. The big thing about condos is that like you said, there will always be renters where a house might be a bit harder to move depending on what you own and location.

    Yeah I know who you mean. I've seen a lot despite my age, so things that are way out to lunch in my opinion, you'll see me comment on them. I just can't help it.
