I do not consider my home to be an investment. Why not? I define an investment as something purchased for the purpose of making money. I didn't buy my home to make money. I bought it so my family would have somewhere to live. If it shoots up in value, I don't plan to sell it. If it falls in value, I also don't plan to sell it. It is our home and we plan to stay here for many more years (it has been 13 already).
