Would be amazing right
Four child replies deep and someone mentions that leverage could be dangerous, might be a new record folks!
Ironic if you are successful then poor people that can't even lock up $1,000 for a few years will say you are a rent seeking mess.
- kgwgk 10y agoYou can have margin interest rates below the 30-year rate. Is that amazing? (Edit: Never mind, I see this possibility was mentioned in another comment. If your point is that your previuos comment about getting 9% using a leveraged investment in 30-year bonds makes no sense, I agree completely.)
- slededit 10y agoIts not that leverage is dangerous necessarily - if you could get money at a lower rate for a similar time period its in fact nearly risk free. Its just that these opportunities are extremely rare and short circuiting it by using shorter term debt negates the benefits.
