But instead of praising his achievement, they downplayed it. “Anyone could have sailed west and found land,” they scoffed. “You just happened to get there first.”…
Every few years, the media tells us property is “finished.” They say it’s too risky, too expensive, or that the market is about to crash. I’ve been investing for five decades now, and I’ve heard it all before. After the 1980s property boom, people said “our kids will never be able to afford property again.”…
