Used car market is coming down, but still super high. Reducing used car inventory 10+ million vehicles was going to do that.

Used boat are stupid high. Stuff at dealer auction is going for retail price or more.

Not sure what the bargains are other than real-estate.

Money is cheap-- interest rates are crazy low.

Pretty much everything at Barrett Jackson OC this weekend. Except for the stuff with a reserve (which didn't sell) sellers really got beat up.

Rv's are going for a song. used trailers also, almost anyhthing at the $ store is a good deal........chips toilet paper, paper towels , kitchen stuff, snacks, almost all household stuff, bleach laundry soap etc. Definitly NOT fruit! its stupid exspensive.....real food is cheaper!! mid 70's GM A bodies in good shape are good affordable cars, mid 80's early 90's trucks, also affordable in excellent shape. I'll think of more. Oh......and women are more exspensive than ever...stay away from most any model year!!!

Spot on there! There were more than a few vehicles that sold for way less than what they were worth. Some fantastic deals to be sure.

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people.

This is known as "bad luck."

Airplanes are relatively cheap right now. Too bad I don't have a bunch of extra cash.
