no, it was by far the worst financial decision of her life (fortunately she listened to me and bought energy stocks, though the benefit of those profits only offsets a small fraction of the opportunity cost of not monetizing the housing bubble windfall). people should count themselves lucky if once in their life Mr. Market offers them a windfall. that can accelerate them many decades towards reaching retirement-savings targets. windfalls that go begging usually mean people must put in the hard yards. they would have done very well to sell when i told them (a year ago). price had doubled in two years. it is definitely going back down. now it is more questionable since the market is starting to cr*sh in Smell-A.
