In the 90-2000, it was the stock market and you can't lose on the dot coms. But of course, we know what happened. It cratered just as fast as it rose.<BR/><BR/>For the past several years, RE took over the role and it is a can't lose proposition. But it can and will be. People will find out very soon in 2007. In some areas such as Phoenix, Tampa, Miami, flippers are starting to face the darkside of RE when they are saddled with mortgages and can't unload their stucco boxes onto the next sucker.<BR/><BR/>As for where to put your money, I think the stock market is a terrific way to capitalized on the events that are unfolding before our eyes. Money can be realized if you can manage risks and play along side with it. The question for each of us is, "Do I feel lucky?"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27697009.post-1154667453853535682006-08-03T21:57:00.000-07:002006-08-03T21:57:00.000-07:00If the stock market is going to crash, how about s...If the stock market is going to crash, how about shorting indexes.
