I’m trying to figure out which the better investment would have been over the last 20 years.
An S&P 500 Index Fund, for example: SPY, or a property in San Francisco: lets assume average price across the whole city over the same time frame.
If two identical people had taken all of their disposable income and savings and one put it into SF property and the other SPY, who would have come out ahead?
For the sake of concreteness, lets say the one investing in SF Real Estate lived in the house, whereas the one investing in SPY paid an equal amount of rent to the Mortgage of the SF property, but without Property taxes.
To be clear, this is not asking what a viable investment strategy is, or if it's smart to invest like in the examples above.
This is strictly asking about the outcome value-wise of the above two options
