I have thought about it. We are about ten years our from semi-retirement. The thought of going ahead and picking up a nice patio home near the ocean and then renting it for a few years had certainly occurred. One way to do that would be to liquidate a sizable portion of my collection. I would consider that, however, as someone who has recently done that for a friend, it's a whole lot of work. I have a job that keeps me busy a good 60 hours a week. Just doesn't seem....in the cards. I don't have five items I could sell to accomplish the goal.
While housing does represent a good buy right now, it's going to be a long time before we see previous prices.
