I am also diversified about 1/3 stock market IRA's, etc. and 2/3 real estate. 

Taking stock of your current situation is such a huge first step.

Maybe an oversimplification of what they're saying in the podcast, but if you could refi your house at 3%, and then throw that money right into a general stock market ETF aiming for 8%, then you can conceivably consider debt the asset yielding you a 5% return. 

The current volatility of the world and markets makes me think the housing and stock market is headed for tough times ahead. 

I have saved all my money from work and have put almost all of it (6k) in the stock market in July.

So finance classes, at least in my case, focused on being good at an analysis on stocks, companies, and real focus on corporate banking.

I think the stock market would crash before the real estate market.

My solution was what's in stock at home depot and what can I get done in an hour to keep the food from spoiling.

“Designer” isn’t a technical title so I wouldn’t put too much stock in it without further research.

Considering there are 0% real yields on almost anything but REI and business investments and my personal view is that the stock market is at extreme risk of imploding, and the dollar is losing value, it only makes greater sense to store wealth in real estate.However, it seems risky to do it in turnkey.
