In the future asset prices will do whatever the guys at the top want them to do. Since I am not in that club, I really have no idea what to invest in.
Gold scares me because it would be easy for a few powerful players to control that market. There’s not too much of the stuff floating around. I could see it skyrocketing, then plummeting like a stone and leaving everyone hanging out to dry.
I do have a gut feeling that high inflation is on the way, though. If you’re confident that you can continue to earn a living and you expect high inflation, then why not load up on as much debt as possible and buy as much property as you can? Of course if it turns out to be deflation you’ll be screwed.
