'There is so much opportunity in this country, it's not even funny, because very bubble means underinvestment in another area. If one thinks there is a bubble, rather than gripe about it, go find the undervalued asset class and leverage it.

That's what I am doing and continue to do. I take my NY money and I invest it in the depressed parts of this country. I leverage it to the max because my margin of safety is incredible.'

Good point. Is Wall Street money now quietly buying flyover country RE? One of the true bargains in an overvalued global asset mania especially if the dollar continues dropping..

"Most people on this thread have not made money in about 7 years, that's why they're so depressed."

I guess I'm an exception.

I've made significant gains in the past 7 years.

And, I'm very happy, really.

An extremely happy bear.

That is certainly most appropriate for the current environment. I was still scared shit back in 2007. Yet so few see it because most have never started and run a business from scratch, nor understand real estate or corporate finance..
