Perhaps I should add some pertinent personal information. My parents, age 73 and 71, are real estate developers, always living with huge debts. They generally continue to own everything they build -- retail and office in the San Francisco Bay Area.

If the economy collapses in a way that helps those with massive debts, I'll inherit many millions.

If the economy collapses the way it did in the 1930s then I'll be the big winner - except that I'll have to support my parents, and probably my brother and sister and their families as well.

Even if I didn't see things the way I do, it wouldn't be strategically wise for me to be taking the same bet as my parents.
