There's only a handful of you, and you're acting like obsessed lunatics.

AVAST, YE LUBBERS!  WHITE PICKET FENCE AMERICA IS ABOUT TO GO BELLY UP!

I've battened down the hatches as best I can with my two 401Ks. Something, something... CAPITAL PRESERVATION FUND in one of them, and like, bonds, and commercial mortgages or something in the other one. Basically, the lowest risk options offered in each plan.

"Guns 'N Beans Futures" were, surprisingly enough, not to be found anywhere on the list for either plan.

In a crash house prices come down but the banks don't lend. Outside of a crash the prices are too high, I wouldn't pay much heed to that other than what is happening with the interest rate.

Things to consider:
If the Mortgage is less then your rent it tends to be a better option hands down.
Buy in a place that if the economy crashes you would be comfortable to stay if you were unable to sell.
