"If I have 200k debt but have 400k assets I'm better off than someone with no debt at all."
what about if your assets aren't growing in value?
a fall of 5% will lead to a decline of $20,000
the person who had no debt will only lose $10,000
so debt magnify your loses
and of course you have to pay interest on that borrowed money
say 5% or $10,000
so in effect you will end up losing $30,000
debt is a dagger on the steering wheel pointed at your heart one bump on the road and your finished.
ie you better hope the asset continues to grow and you still have a job
that is one little thing people addicted to debt dont see
