Oh, investments like this are awesome. I could easily take loans against them at like 1 or 2% while the cars actually increase at 7 to 13%. It's basically free money.
My house is also a store of value, though I have no expectations of selling it.
I suppose there is some way that you could exploit that appreciation over the interest but then you would have to find another car!
And my house value to me is basically in the fact of having a home to lay my head in, the monetary value that it holds will matter to my kids a lot more than me, after I am gone off this mortal coil
Oh, I won't ever really benefit much from this. It's just more numbers on my net worth. I will literally never need to liquidate these assets.
In fact, even spending what I have been spending, I'm still making more money than I spend. Well, on paper I am... I don't actually convert much of it to money. Money is a liquid asset and I don't need much in the way of liquid assets. If I need money, it's cheaper for me to take a loan and spend someone else's money than it is to spend my own.
I think it's works out to be cheaper for everyone when they spend other peoples money
Well except for the person who's money you're spending!
