Stock market did better. I won’t go look at mine but I know it performed wonderfully. What old Warren is saying is that real property is his pick for the next ten years

He did well off real estate during his life.
He also believes in long term investments. Never chasing stocks that are on the rise. He’s been saying for about a decade the market is to expensive right now. The average total market value to GDP of the U.S. averages out to 85%. Then he plays the market like counting cards. When the market value is below that 85% he buys long term investments. When it’s above, he sits on his current investments and rides them unless he is forced to make a move.
So what you will see is in 2012, we were below market average, so he advised people to be making purchases/investments. Especially since the housing market collapsed in 2008 and people were running out of ways to pay their mortgage so they were foreclosing left and right.
