It was the artificially inflated price of housing that both made, then killed my source of "extra" income. See, if you toss a rock into the air, even if it leaves the airy part, it will eventually come back down. In August of '05, I figured home prices had outstripped the rise of incomes. Which could only mean one thing...........................
(Ladies and Gentlemen, I refer you to the last five years.)
...........so I sold the last house and got out.
The trick is in knowing when the game is over. I didn't really "lose" anything.
I simply went back to earning my money the old fashioned way.
With tools and sweat.
How many Wall Street types do you suppose would be willing to do the same?
None, would be my guess. They'd rather embezzle it from the taxpayer.
Too bad the bastards don't leap out of windows anymore.
That would have been preferrable.
