<div><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Recently I was watching Jim Cramer host of Mad Money on CNBC taliking about how to invest in the current market. Cramer is not perfect but if you watch this video you&#8217;ll see that he predicted th current meltdown a year ago.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">Cramer Made Two significant points ;</span></div>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"></p>
<ol>
<li>Keep whatever money you won&#8217;t need for the next 5 years out of the market.</li>
<li>A housing recovery is the key to market stabilization.</li>
</ol>
<p>If you are a regular reader of Metrocrete you know that I believe that everything related to a house or commerical proerty starts with concrete. Few know anything about concrete other than it is hard. Click through Metrocrete and you will learn that concrete, though it seems simple is very complex and versatile.</p>
<p>My goal is to educate about concrete, the products, manufacturers, solutions and benefits. As a property rehabber I have used all kinds of concrete related products and coatings to improve value. The results have been highly profitable.</p>
<p>Addressing Cramers comments <strong>&#8220;What is the solution to the housing crisis?&#8221; </strong>I think starts with knowledge and education. For example, did you know that 70% of moisture problems in basements are a result of faulty gutters? Yes there is relevance between concrete and gutters. If you didn&#8217;t know this you would overspend thousands of dollars trying to turn your basement into a usable space.</p>
<p><strong>What Is Your Solution To The Housing Crisis?</strong></p>
<p>I have been speaking with our government officials and business leaders to find out what the programs are to help home owners, new buyers, contractors, distributors and manufacturers solve this problem</p>
<p>Knowedge and education about homes and commercial properties is part. We need to hear what you have to say. Whats going to get housing on firm footing so that we can start to prosper again. We need ideas and solutions.</p>

<p>What do you think is the solution? Send me your comments at <a href="mailto:tips@metrocrete.com">tips@metrocrete.com</a> or click the comment tab below. Tell everyone you know to express their ideas here. Don&#8217;t think that our government or the so called &#8220;Financial Geniuses&#8221; we watch on TV are going to solve the problem. We need to figure it out for ourselves. The housing market is broken, we need to fix it.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;"></p>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">I am going to share your comments with our government and business leaders and let them know what we think. We&#8217;re going to demand answers and use these answers to find solutions.</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana;">I eagerly look forward to your comments.</span></div>
