I am glad you would love that capeman. By the way… gather a couple of friends then pick one of them. Because that friend would be the one losing his job. Also find a couple more friends who want to borrow some money to start a small business. The tell them that they most likely will pay interest rates that will crush their business plan.
So once again, what you may wish for may happen… just make sure you have an understanding about the basic economic engine of how things work because alot more things get affected in an interest rate environment hovering in this double digit strata other then housing.
The amount of contraction is something people who were not around in the late 70s or early 80s just do not think about.
