rizzla, To be honest your basic assesment of shares vs property misses a lot of major differences. Comparing buying bricks and mortar to highly leveraging risky trading activity.
Like over a long term with CPI prices with rise on both investments so betting on prices going down will only work short turn where as property is a proven long term investment. Ill give you the credit to say that you understand this concept and that you are trolling a little :)
