I forgot to add in renting out the property in #3. If I could have any kind of positive cashflow on a property rented out I’d be all over that.
I wouldn’t count on anarchy. This same kind of thing happened back in GD 1.0 and it wasn’t all about ammo, food and shooting collectors. Maybe it was a lot about food!
There’s a lot of rebalancing that has to go on with the correction in the credit markets and the now expected 30-50% correction in false GDP growth over the last decade+. A lot of people who feel very secure in their jobs are getting axed left and right. In this environment very few jobs will be safe and people just have to take that into consideration when making the plunge. Most people don’t have any idea of what kind of correction we are looking at across ALL asset classes. Very few saw what was coming to this point and even fewer were more pessimistic than that. The economy is going to get scary.
