In 25 years will it matter if the unthinkable happens and real estate values drop in half? No, cause half is alot when tenants paid for it. If stocks drop in half, and they might, if say, a radioactive dirty bomb takes out Chicago, then my hard earned money that paid for stocks is gone. Real Estate is king. > > Yes I have a traditional stock/fund/gold portfolio, but thats not what will give me reckless sprending … Life happens with real estate… WHEN bought RIGHT is when you can grow a living from it. There is potential that a handful of you on here might act… and I am happy to assist with those who are serious. Alot of grat RE agents in the area, but consider an agent who is also an investor. Would you buy a car from a guy who doesnt drive? Holy shit…+rep for some informative shit. I agree though, If you can invest in real estate in a smart way… do it. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/need-real-finance-advice/247209)._
