Sorry if I triggered anybody, but I was born in America. I can read a little Orwellian, but my accent in Newspeak is indecipherable. So I find it easier to just say things in English. Frankly, I don't even know what the current Newspeak word for "Foreign Invasion" is these days. Are they still calling 20,000 people a day illegally invading a foreign country "migrants"? They've been using it on Fox News, so if it's not wrongthink by now, it soon will be.

Does use of English rather than Newspeak warrant a timeout ? I thought that was just for being political. It's hard to tell what's OK in a world where getting a shot is a political act.

I was just trying to explain the math that indicates that retirement real estate is likely to be a safe place to put your money. Our population grew by a third in the last 20 years, while the birth rate was negative. In English, the word for that is "invasion". But whatever you want to call it, when there are more people who need a house than there are houses that exist, houses are going to be a good investment.

It's something we should all consider in our retirement plans, regardless of which language we speak.
