I completely disagree with PL re: home ownership. It is only a pipedream if you are looking for short term gain or if your eyes are bigger than your wallet. Long term, real estate is a win and should be in the mix along with stocks for a true diversified investment strategy IMHO.

Warren Buffett agrees:
