Everyone panics when the market drops. Warren Buffett does the opposite — and his reasoning comes down to a hamburger 🍔

In his 1997 shareholder letter, Buffett asked a simple question: if you're going to buy something your whole life, do you want it cheaper or more expensive? Then he pointed out we somehow forget that logic the second it's about stocks.

The catch? A lower price is only good news if the thing is actually still worth owning. This isn't "buy the dip" — it's about not letting a price tag run your emotions.

Most people look at the property price.

Dr. Mohanad Alwadiya, "The Wolf of Real Estate," looks at the numbers behind it.

Price per square foot. Yield. Cap rate. Payment plans. Fees.

Because buying property is not just about whether you can afford the down payment.

It is about whether the asset actually makes sense after you buy it.

Save this before your next property conversation.
