My accomplishments

This is the list.  It's sorted in very roughly chronological order at this point.  Depending upon the precise position I am going after with any given version of my resume, I will pick several of these to highlight at the top of the resume.  The remainder will mostly end up in much of the body of the rest of the resume.

If you can think of any others, or if you have any suggestions for rewording, please drop me a note in the comments.  Each one is worded with the company name and such so that I can pluck them out of this historical list....  The ones highlighted at the top of the resume will be worded this way.  In the body of the resume they will be edited down.

In 2006 I began warning friends and family that the US housing market was in a bubble, and that a price correction was coming.
