TJ, have you lost your mind? That's not wealth creation. "Let's all agree to revalue our house prices up and be wealthy" is what New Zealanders have already done. That doesn't make them wealthy. It makes them indebted, because they used borrowed money to bid the prices up. <Home prices to rise 45% by end-08E! We expect home prices in the next 15 months to rise another 45%. >

You say interest rates are way down and house prices will go up. That means borrowed money will be used to do the bidding up.

Very peculiar wealth if you ask me.

Actual real wealth would be created if you were to stop goofing around around and make that 450MHz OFDM cyberphone call and if Dr Hu would stop his dopey ideas about invading other countries and allow big factories to be built producing said cybercerfing systems. The actual wealth that would be created would far exceed the total value of Hong Kong.

Instead, you are joining the USA and NZ "wealth" system in which people borrow loads of money, bid up the prices of existing houses, and call it wealth.

I recommend you sell out at the top if such mania takes hold, and buy gold - or OFDM factories if they are allowed instead of dopey wealth-destroying TD-SCDMA.
