Alexis, I was wondering if it would be the best option to sell my current real estate, rent for a while and then purchase a new home/land after the price starts to drop let say in a year or so. I am in Canada...so what are your thoughts on that strategy?

I am not an real estate expert, I think we are due for the long term decline but some regions will be worst other can be better. I am not investig in real estate now and I most likely wont in 1-2 years time.

Real wealth comes from the ability to produce goods and the technology that enables production. You can play all the bankers games you want. Bottom line is that real wealth comes from the technology of mass production. Thats where you want your investments. Invest in goods that will be produced and sold locally. Food, fuel or energy capture systems, steel, machinery. As soon as we loose the dollar advantage, trade should be less of a problem. Right now there is not enough machinery in place.

Good point you seam to understand that real estate may not be a very good investment, productive capacity comes first.

Ive read the book to . I think he means to sell before what your talking about happening and buy before the new money system is in place, i own rental also all people has to live some where. Might be the cash flow. Thats what i plan to do.

When all your friends and neighbors are "buying", that's the time to sell.

What is your professional or scholastic training? You have a good way of looking deeply into things that are very complex, and you present your arguments well. Thanks!!!

Real Estate is Ok for investment if it has a strategic use. Don't buy a property thinking that if you hold it for six years you can make a profit. Buy it for strategic purposes first. If the value goes up, its a win win situation. Buy for Rental income, a way to pay your employees, farming, a place to put your factory, and other strategic reasons.

Alexis, I think you are concerned about depleting resources etc. Many people see depletion of resources as a simple equation. This equation is too simplified. (Yes, we are on a finite planet - of course).

A more complete description of the situation regarding resources is better. I think this may be of some interest to you. uLQoa_FA_zo

It is quite a long video, and perhaps you do not have time to look at it. - Cheers

Hi Alexis. Yes I understand peak oil theory etc. "..wages stays the same and food double and gas triple in price.." I agree if you are pricing this in dollars. "..consumption will gradually go down by 70-75%.." Yes, very possibly. Remember the health of an economy is not measured by consumption. It's measured by productivity.

As long as people allow politicians to tell them what to do, the productivity will decrease. Thanks for reply.
