So since we were discussing real estate investing --- I view this "news" both great but also really worrying. Demand for any product - regardless of what that is - has a ripple effect.... Housing demand will make us feel good IF we already own a house... but will also lead to higher interest rates... Which is good if you're already retired... and not so good if you want to buy something with borrowed money. LOL
