Anyone else investing offshore?

That's a gamble.

I guess banking on rental appreciation is the same as banking on equity appreciation its what everyone on this site calls gambling.

If money wasn't automatically taken from peoples paycheck for gambling in stocks with outlandish PE ratios today, and no real business in 2001, I doubt they'd sit down the weekend after pay day, shop for stocks, and place buy orders.  

I can send over info for you to fund my offshore, untracable account :D

It could appreciate but I consider that gambling.

If you do equity only your basically gambling to some degree.Buying negative cash flow assets is better then not buying anything at all however.

That is not investing, that is gambling.  

If your plan is to buy and hope that any property just goes up, I suggest just going to Vegas and putting it all on Red on the roulette table because hoping it goes up is just a gamble if you don’t do the research and have a game plan.

I now pass up properties that I would have bought in my earlier days when I was more willing to be aggressive and gamble because I knew that I was willing to hustle more to make a deal work.
