    I used to work with a contractor who over leveraged in property before 2008.
    He maxed out the mortgage on his main residence to buy more property.
    His stress levels were through the roof in 09 and he would disappear to his car on a regular basis to 'destress' and on a few occasions forget to wipe off the 'nose candy' before his return.
    I would try and reassure him that the housing market would be making new highs within ten years, it happened much sooner than that.

    No, but I know quite a few contractors who have.

    This could have been a clever and amusing parody with that title... Sadly it wasn't.

    Anyone on here care to admit to taking anything harder than [a can of] coke to get through the working day?
