ParticipantBUUUUUUT it’s hard to save when there is these great prices on LCD TVs at Costco and I always need something!! Like a new Norelco shavers, that mop thing that cleans your car without water oh and those cameras you install all around your house to spy on your guest!! My those Granite rock speakers are cool too…SO hard to choose but wait why should I concern myself with the price? Put it on the card..

ParticipantBesides inflation there is also the devaluation of the dollar. Why save when those savings will be worth nothing in 3 years?

Participantbubba, I’ve saved diligently for over 35 years, never taking much risk (=banks and money markets) until very recently. It’s been a losing proposition over the long haul and even in different countries, net of inflation, taxes, and expenses. I would definitely advise you and NeetaT and others that taking no risk is just a loser in the long run.
If and when enough savers like us desert low risk investments, they might actually pay a positive return. Don’t hold your breath!
