    I'm incorrect because the only time you seek to justify your decision is on the multiple occasions that you've debated this with other posters on here? Try making sense geneer!

    You fail to grasp the key difference.

    Defending myself from embittered obsessive attacks is quite different from the observable compulsion many bullish posters have to boast about what mortgage rate they're on at every avaliable opportunity.

    Therefore you are quite wrong.

    You seem a little bitter about the people you lump into the second option and their 'random luck'.

    Not at all. The emergency base rates benefit those who buy after the crash as well as before. A fact that seems to escape some people.

    But I do find it interesting how some are compelled to boast and gloat about how they've benefited from the emergency measures required to combat the crisis they utterly failed to see coming.

    And I do mean very regularly. Despite your dissembling, everyone is aware of this.

    5 years ago you were engaged in oh so profound online debates with randoms from the internet and it turned out that you were right that the housing market would go pop. Well done, give yourself a medal.

    I'll give myself intellectual credit for dislaying more understanding and prescience than many.
