The world is heading into a second great depression. I would suggest that you take some time to learn about economic structuring before spouting your rubbish on a public forum.

Watch the markets - you'll see - within two weeks it will 2.27. Buy! Buy! Buy!

A couple of consolations:
  1. Most members of this forum are waiting for their authorization to work in Canada to come through or for their UK houses to sell or whatever. Most of them simply are not in a position to buy property in Canada, regardless of whether or not they would like to do so.

  2. If people base their decisions on what just one person says on an Internet forum, they're bonkers. This will not have been their first crazy decision, and it won't be their last.

Nonetheless, persistent misrepresentation of the financial and climatic conditions in NS by a poster with a vested interest really isn't kosher. A new poster might not know Ontheboatout to be a nutter.

I wonder if he ever found a mark to dump that tree house on.

Anyone can choose to take advice or not - don't take it, who cares.
But its not advice... its your opinion, the targets are all there, re inflation etc etc, none of which are being met, you fail to grasp the underlying economic factors that are at work here. You are wrong to be posting this 'Advice'. It may go up, it may go down, you are clearly not someone who should be giving out 'advice'. Educate yourself on the current economic goings on then come back and put up a real reply.
