I've been hearing similar since the early 90's when I bought my first little flat. In that time we've had high IR's, lots of wars, 911, isis, 2008 crash etc etc etc and yet that little flat is worth x50 -
Don't forget SARS, Michael Jackson dying and Bruce Jenner chopping off his pecker. Yet still Crashy waits, thinking the next event will be the big thing that sets off his apocalyptic chain of events. If he'd just bought by now he could have paid off the mortgage!I've been hearing similar since the early 90's when I bought my first little flat.

Simple question, as you were around in the 90`s - Did the average person have as much cheap credit to play with back then as they did in the early 2000`s, when this mega-bubble started to inflate? Also I don`t recall hearing anything remotely similar to the financial mess we are in now back then, yes there were economic "events" and ups and downs but the average person was never so burdened down with debt as they are now.0 -
