China's struggling property developers won't be getting a major bailout, authorities indicated, warning that those who "harm the interests of the masses" will be punished.
Someone buying an unfinished building likely already has a home. If they don’t they can buy one for much cheaper now since housing prices have gone down cuz of the real estate bubble popping.
What about all those unfinished buildings that people got in debt to buy?
They are not needed. There is no one to live in them.
They have over a billion excess homes. It was the only thing that normal people could invest in so they just kept building.
If you bought one as an investment, nobody is going to buy them from you. They are worthless.
So what are you going to do with the millions of people relying on that for their retirement savings?
🤷♂️
IMO Social Security is a better solution because not everyone has extra money to invest, and any class of investment can crash.
Which is good, because it keeps costs of living down, amiright?
But what is the actual real-world practical solution for those people?
Are they now just going to be broke (or even in debt) with no place to live?
