<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bahabully, post: 637756, member: 17555&quot;]420 - Good point.&nbsp; Demand is relative to supply, availability of credit, marketing, and numerous other factors.&nbsp;&nbsp; Maybe I should have used &quot;Land&quot; vs. homes/condos,, we&#039;ve all heard that &#039;they ain&#039;t making any more it&#039; used to describe land as an investment.. and it&#039;s also followed the home/condo pricing trend..... </p><p>&nbsp;Anyway, the point was that something purchased by 2, or 2000 people, today at a 20-200% premium to the short term median of historical purchase prices does not really make that item &quot;worth&quot; that.&nbsp;&nbsp; I always try to keep a holistic view of investments and significant purchases,,, where cyclical bubbles driven by overmarketing, easy credit, etc.. all can create &#039;hold em&#039;&#039;/&#039;sell em&quot; positions for me.. now if a bunch of folks want to start paying $3000-$15000 for the be-dazziling MLP&#039;s out there in the market,, then put me in the hold/sell catagory... and I&#039;ll wait for the bubble to pop before I jump back in (if it ever does).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Mike - &lt;fell out of my chair,,, haha.&gt;&nbsp; outstanding comment.... I was hoping to solicit your sharp edge... as I enjoy reading you as much as anyone in the forum,, epecially when you&#039;ve been rubbed.... good stuff.</p><p>btw, I wasn&#039;t calling anyone &#039;tags&#039;,, just saying ya&#039;ll were acting like em&#039;.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Back to Point again - Ya&#039;ll ever see the &quot;Gem Mining&quot; stores they have out in the Smokey mountains,,, where you can bring your kids in and buy a $50 bucket of dirt with some quartz and other &quot;precious&quot; stones in it, then pan the stones out of the dirt...&nbsp; My kids love it and I enjoy the activity and time spending with them washing dirt off rocks.&nbsp;&nbsp; Both dirt and rocks were made in limited supply by the most distinguished mint ever known to man,, I wonder what that bag of dirt and rocks is really worth ,, or for that matter what the owner of the mint would have me pay for them ?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
