This a great real world example from Mj's book. I ran across a short podcast on NPR and, if you listen between the lines, it follows MJ's advice closely relating to the story about a plumber talking about buying rental property. In this story a firefighter is buying distressed real estate and talking about how hard it has become to find good deals. When the "average joe" gets in, its time to get out. Sounds like the ride is nearing the end of the road in distressed for the majority.
