Yeah, that prediction is contingent on their demise. There's no way our current fiat system lasts 5 more years. It will be something entirely different and my prediction is prices of standard homes will be closer to a one year salary for an experienced professional, as it was for the hundred years prior to dropping the gold standard.

Technically speaking, homes should be depreciating assets just like cars. The older they are the more repairs and maintenance they need. This used to be the case before they suckered us into believing in monopoly money.
