I think the world is full of incompetent CEOs I've worked with plenty of them myself. And the CEOs of real corporations do often keep important information away from investors all the time; that's why we had Enron and Worldcom and why they passed Sarbanes-Oxley to force more disclosure. Basing decisions on personal prejudices? Happens all the time in real companies. Even big ones, like AT&T. Business school is not a requirement for those jobs, either. And paying attention certainly isn't mandatory even if they went. Most HOAs that I know of don't choose randomly. The board of directors is usually chosen by a vote of the homeowners. That's actually better than the rules for choosing corporate boards, where the board itself usually has considerable power to set the slate and it's often difficult for anybody, even large shareholders, to change it. Oh, it's no surprise that most HOAs are incompetently managed, but it's no different from any other corporation. At least in this one you get a vote, and you live right next to some of the other people who get a vote. Knock on some doors. PamPerdue 79 months ago Please sign in to give a compliment.
