<p>[QUOTE="chascat, post: 2628070, member: 76792"]You made the right choice, do nothing. I made the same choice and recovered also. I also had plenty of equity to survive the hard times in both of the prior recessions. Things look good for the present, so I won,t make any fast moves if the economy sinks or swims. The point I try to make for the young ones is only to not over extend in any of their investments, and have a little savings set aside for the tough times ahead. I lost a lot of equity in the last downturn, but it was all on paper anyway and didn,t really matter. The ones who got slammed the hardest were mostly young families, average blue collar jobs, and little savings. A rough situation to be in when they loose their jobs and can,t keep up mortgage payments on a home with a negative equity. I hope it never happens again like in 1994 or 2008, but weve just gone thru some fair times and the tention seems a bit strong for a downturn of some sort. I hope I,m dead wrong about that and Trump actually has a fabulous cure for the next few years. As for the PMs, I don,t have the slightest clue as to how they tick, and don,t think anyone else really understands them either, but I do think that real estate, stocks, and reasonable interest rates are the makers or breakers of the economy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
