If it is fast capital gains then you are right, but if it is just a steady income stream then it is not that difficult.

If it is indeed a steady income stream you seek, then talking about winner/loser suburbs this year [or any other] is something/nothing.

You can't have it both ways. You are the same as the bulls on somersoft who talk this way. Denying a trend because you can see an exception will only fool the dumbest investors.

Trust me! I can list companies on the ASX for you to have invested in and made money during the GFC. Can't you? That doesn't reverse the fact that the rest of us suffered, some badly.
