There are risks inherent in investing in housing, just as there are risks in other kinds of investments.

When there is blood in the (Main) streets, I may pick up some more property.

Bwahahahahahah!

"molier than thou"--- you made me spit a chunk of chicken. Fargin' a I'm having some of that shaddenfreud stuff.I tried to warn people about the economy and P.O. and they looked at me like I was nuts or they'd politely roll their eyes at their friend when they thought I wasn't looking.I like the idea of them being like the chili eatin' , sniveling rats. bastard covered bastards with insides full of bastard sauce.Then again me and the internal combustion engine have been like peas in a pod for 25 years, I'm gonna miss it when it's gone.

In the global casino the odds always favor the house. If the house does find themselves in a corner, they change the rules of the game or just make more chips.

This puts a damper on my schadenfreude. I can't take any enjoyment in foreclosures because these people were born to lose. They put the money in the slot pulled the handle and nothing came back.

There is a bright side though. That is when the house loses. When economists and bankers panic. When hedge funds evaporate. When banks start to fail. This is the source of my optimism.

To see economists and their pretentious theories of endless growth and profits come crashing down in a calamitous inferno of flames and black smoke. That for me is true schadenfreude.
