Now that they see a boom, they assume a bust is coming. It s a very interesting time.
People seem to have cast aside the notion that business won t always be so strong.
Boat sales are a good example - 60 percent of new boats are selling to first time boaters. Homes are being built, upgraded and re-furnished at a rate that has completely absorbed the entire work force of tradesmen. Along came the government and put on the brakes and lo and behold the indicators slowed enough to allow confidence to remain strong. . So what s happening is absolutely confounding a lot of people. They truly believe that the big bust is right around the corner.
