GZ told me to go long the thong, his vertical price was up the wazoo.

It's actually the micro-bikinis that one should buy calls on. Especially the brand that makes dental floss look cumbrous by comparison. If the diminutive garments are transparent, all the better, so go long. Less is more. -g-

Houses don't depreciate because they are not making more land, there are more people, we are approaching peak everything , and most of all currency is inflating. Currently there is a lot of inventory that is below replacement cost, that can't last.

I can appreciate (no pun intended) the land argument, but in reality, humans only occupy a relatively small percentage of land. Of course, land ownership is another story.

When I am in town on business, it's amusing to drive through some of the HOA neighborhoods west of Houston with beautiful $500,000 homes where one could leap from roof-to-roof. They're that close. Then, if you walk around to the back, you'll notice that the brick veneer street-view tapers off to hardyplank. LOL. Oh, and property taxes are pushing $15K-$18K per year there for such "elite" homes. LOL. No thanks. My wife and I enjoy living in the woods where the deer and the antelope play. -g-
