Texsox Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 I am reviewing a business plan and one of the numbers jumped out at me. Down here damn near every new home has an electronic security system installed. I take them for granted. It seems that the upper Midwest has a very small install base and when I need Midwest data, who better than soxtalk? Note: No actual investing should be done based on these results. Past performance does not guarantee future performance. All investing involves risk and a possible loss of capitol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Prawn Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 My Godmother is the only one I know with a security system. Too bad the one time she forgot to set it she was robbed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KipWellsFan Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 Remember that Bowling for Columbine movie where Canadians don't even lock their doors. Seriously though we lock our door, don't know what's up with Ontario. Don't have a security system but many do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that has something to do with all of the illegals in southern Texas? Seriously, though, I don't know of many people who have home security systems where I live (Indiana).

Seriously, though, I don't know of many people who have home security systems where I live (Indiana). Actually you are close. A lot of the homes are owned by wealthy Mexicans who only visit part of the year. So they have security alarms to watch over their stuff while they are away. And some of them do make more trips to their homes and businesses than allowed by law, which makes them illegal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilMonkey Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 No security system on the house, but you have to lock everything. We have this guy 3 houses up the block who fried his brain on LSD that goes around checking car doors, sheds and sometimes even houses for open doors. He has been beaten up by a few people who have caught him in thier cars, but so far he is lucky he hasn't been seriously hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted April 5, 2005 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I just have a chart near the door. I randomly change the color of said chart to give my outdated electronics a false sense of security. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
