Recession question. How did you stay profitable or do well in 08

[Jonathan Farber]

It seems like a lot of people are held from taking action due to risk of potential crash.

*From people who invested before 2008 and after* what were your investments/strategies that remained strong during the recession or kept you afloat?

I’ve heard a lot of people say investing in class B/C properties is safer for multiple reasons. I write this post because it seems many investors here have only started investing after 2008-2010. Including me :)

Thanks!
