Participantbsrsharma is right when stating “One way the Fed is helping to solve our severe indebtedness is through inflation (…)”
Equalizer: I think that bsrsharma understood my argument right away and then re-phrased it very cogently. Where I don’t agree with him is that he appears to see this policy as a positive. For those of us who are not debtors, who save compulsively and pay taxes, that inflationary policy is mistaken. It’ll do more harm than good, unless one is a FB or a bank holding too much toxic paper.

ParticipantFLU:
The best advice I can give is that you teach your kids to stay away from TVs and videos as much as possible! But you have to teach by example, they have to see you reading, or taking up tennis, or bicycling, restoring furniture, taking music lessons. As for manners, the best way to teach is by example too: insist on saying please, thank you, holding doors for others. I know it’s easier said than done, but there are no shortcuts.

ParticipantIf your income stays the same and there is 50% inflation over the next 3 years do you think that 500k house today is going to be more affordable in 3 yrs? I don’t think so!!!
Kev, I don’t think so either! That’s one big IF you wrote. The point I’m making is precisely that nominal incomes will start going up sooner or later. Our friend bsrsharma appears to be one of the few who got my argument.
