Pizza Thursday, page-56

Hey Andy, while I wrote in jest, I can empathise with the dilemna.

Many years ago, I decided the housing market wasn't how I wanted to invest because (a) I was more interested in the stock market and (b) I thought the housing market was overblown - that was in the 90's. The housing markets had a few quiet spells here in Australia but it has just kept going on and on. I have given up waiting for it to crash here GFC-style like in the US. Logic says it must eventually, but I know in hindsight it would have been very easy to jump on board that train and would have done very well out of it.

I know that money can be made being a contrarian, but as the old sayings go - eg. going with the trend until the bend in the end, Mr Market is always right, etc, etc - its easier to go with the flow than go against it.

Cheers, Sharks.
