What should I invest in when the time comes?
Serious financial advice please, mgt.

I don't know,
have to wait and see what goes cheap, the housing bubble will probably burst again at some point though, thinking about selling up before deflation kicks in, wouldn't want a mortgage when that happens, but I'm not really looking at how to get rich tbh.

wait does this mean it might be a good time to buy a house soon or that it wont be a good time to buy a house soon?
and by soon i mean when the bubble bursts

it'll be a good time to buy if you don't need a mortgage to do so,
otherwise it'll be a little iffy.

Prices will drop, but no one will lend you any money.
Probably a good time to have a mattress stuffed with used notes.

yep,
worse than that, if you have a mortgage and deflation happens, prices and wages drop and you could quickly find that you can't afford the repayments on it

That's ever so reassuring.
I think I'm pretty well insured, though, so I could probably fake my death, for the benefit of the kids.

It's a pretty good idea if you did it about 15 years ago.
Or 30 years ago, come to that.
