The prescience of JM Keynes

This via Brad Delong:

The outstanding ground for cheerfulness lies, I think, in this -- that the system has shown already its capacity to stand an almost inconceivable strain. If anyone had prophesied to us a year or two ago the actual state of affairs which exists to-day, could we have believed that the world could continue to maintain even that degree of normality which we actually have? This remarkable capacity of the system to take punishment is the best reason for hoping that we still have time to rally the constructive forces of the world.


Remarkable.

The changes in the real estate assets are always enlightened by the media outlets, but you have to keep in mind that even in the area of the decreased real estate market there will be some properties having increased market rate. If you are not aware of the real estate market change then are performing a non sense act of measuring the wider market rate. When you are discussing with the asset owner about the property sale then you should know about the value of David Lindahl scam.
