Yea, that article is 100% about gambling. Doing the research and buying a house/condo in the right area, at the right time, can easily outperform an index fund. It is probably harder to do than just plumping money into an index fund, but it is a good example here for how you can allocate your funds in a less 'conventional' way. Nobody said that making money was easy. =)
