   I feel like this is overdramatized a bit.

   For instance: it's mentioned that EU gas storage is at 67% and Germany's at 56%.

   What is not mentioned though is that Poland's storage is at 97% because the previous administration, for better or worse, was paranoid enough to invest in a sizeable marine gas terminal and the current one stocked up early.

   Regarding real estate: adjusted for inflation prices peaked 2.5 years ago, interest rates are also much lower than back then. Nobody is buying because all the Ukrainian refugees who were moving to Poland are here already and that's the last bump in population this country will see for the foreseeable future.

   Also there's the threat of war on Polish soil, which affects investor sentiment.

      Germany hasn’t historically been nice about leaving Polish oil to the Polish when they decide they need it though?

         Not to be that guy, but I'm pretty sure that "Polish" is capitalized. "polish oil" is what I use on my leather shoes

               The fact that you have time to "xD"-reply to some comments but won't address the other ones basically marks you as a troll. Good to know, shame HN doesn't have ways to block/mark users as ignorable.

                  There’s no point in responding to people that have already judged and found wanting. I have better things to do with my time.

                  Though sometimes I still get pulled in, like now.

                     My comment about "Polish oil" is probably right so I guess you go ahead living in your fantasy world.
