Moral of the stories is, instead of focusing on external macro factors which is beyond our control unless you got a crystal ball, why don't we focus on internal factors that are within our reach ie how to increase your salary (passive/active income), other forms of investment that can alleviate your net worth, how to live below/within your means and stop comparing with your peers, try to study the properties that you are targeting whether overvalue or undervalue or stable (min chances of bubble bursting), how to mitigate risk etc etc.

Tell us prophets of doom since when we hear good news. Ever since 1997, seems that every 1-2 yrs we experience uncertainties and crisis after crisis. Life goes on and many still making good money from properties and other investments.

Ok, instead of being NATO, am also almost making up a deal to invest in some property that has potential to reap double triple quadruple return, Insha Allah of course, we can only do so much as human. But again, that is another playing field, road less travel, need plenty of perseverance and hardwork. Some might also think we are mad. Property boom or burst does not affect this kind of investment and it is not in KV.
