Well I take exception with the plumbing analogy, (though I do both myself), a lot of advice you will receive will be canned. Not to brag, but I...
How about when you don't go to Famous Dave's for dinner because you have an eye on a dirty bronze coin on Ebay?
Cool, we can meet up at the Des Moines coin show. I still go down there, as I used to be VP of the DM coin club. West Des Moines is the "yuppy"...
Lol, well I am growing corn on my land this year in Warren County, but you are right, last year was beans. :)
Umm, ever heard of Gresham's Law Inflexion? It works the other way around.
Play around all you want. Make sure you pay attention to before and after, so you can learn WHY certain areas can never come back. Half the battle...

"I don't think there is any evidence that your assumptions are true. More likely is that banks will tighten their underwriting standards and stop...
