Try living in your diversified portfolio. What no bed or toilet in there? Try growing food to eat in the back yard of your diversified portofilio. Outside of water, there is no other asset more important that land. In order for land to be best utilized, you need a dwelling on it, water to it and at least a piece to grow something.
Yes, other investments over time (given the right times of jumping in and out) might pay more money. But, no other investment protects you dignity, like a place to lay your head and a toilet to go in.
