everyone always says this as if housing and the economy are two separate things. you cannot have a strong economy while housing has crashed. housing is at the top of the needs hierarchy. when people have money they will put as much as they

I think in terms of the money supply, assets haven't gone up in excess of the increase in money. so not a bubble yet. too many people skeptical of it to be a bubble. I don't see any big progress or innovations to get velocity into

Tiny House movement misses the point. The reason housing has become expensive is due to the cost of land, not improvements. Construction costs remain stable. You still need to park this house somewhere, and you always see them parked on hug

people should have kids, I think the "no kids" thing is really just a modern American concept. It's fine to wait and plan but I feel sorry for people who say they don't want kids because of what they are reading in globa
