Should you IGNORE The Headlines?

The way to make money is to buy when blood is running in the streets

- JD Rockefeller

I recently came across this article in Time Magazine that summarizes perfectly the current state of the real estate market here in Intown Atlanta. And surprisingly...it has nothing to do with finding steals at 20% below market value, bottoming out prices or agents trying to trick their clients into buying when it's not right for them.

Becoming wealthy has a lot to do with understanding the driving factors of our economy and everything thing to do with timing.

When prices are falling FEW people have the discipline to buy stocks, a house, gold...or any other asset. But those who DO pull the trigger, excel in the long run.
