and that is the really sad part about all of this. Personally, this recession/possible-soon-to-be-depression is great for me. I maintain the same amount of profitability by jacking my rates up to match inflation. I don’t own anything really, and I don’t have any money invested anywhere. So the price of real estate is going to tank. good for me I’ll be looking to buy in about a year or two when it will probably hit rock bottom. same with the stock market. It’s going to tank, but it will rebound fairly quickly, so it will be a great opportunity to get in on the ground floor. it’s the already established/worked all their lives and are getting ready to retire people that are going to get fucked.
