A close family member just 'lost' 300K in the market. Granted, it's just a paper loss, but the recovery to past market levels will be slow. It could have paid off a mortgage, paid for a vacation spot or bought a really, really nice car
The fact that Stefano's moving some high & low end cars is a promising sign for the hobby & that maybe there are some others out there that think like I do. We have a better chance of stabilizing the collector car market than the experts have stabilizing the stock market. JMO
I have no faith in brokers that use other's money to make their living, or in the stock market. I'd rather gamble it myself on something I can enjoy. You don't always win, but it's better than someone else losing it for you.
