almost like..did you see the increased Medicare premium post above?

No, I don't think anyone planned for this rate of inflation. It's worldwide, with China and Japan in far worse shape than we are. This is scary to anyone who lived through the 70's and 80's. Even though I'm taking a bath with savings, I hope they hold out raising interest rates. This is driven by supply and demand. Interest rate increases will not help the inflation, and will just slow down the economy.yeah, it's almost like they planned that out....
I had lost hope it would pass. Was a real surprise that they got it done.and nothing ever happens until a drop dead date which was why Pelosi was setting goal dates and Media was in frenzy.
doesn't it feel better to breathe now? we could've always done that if Media wasn't 24/7 on SM with clickbait.
It's been a while since banks were paying 1%. That is what we will see before anything bigger comes down the pike.I honestly think they need to go back to 3-5%, these super low rates are just propping up the stock market and enriching the already rich that can take advantage. The zero/near zero rates impact things far and wide and broke quite a bit of how the financial system worked and what feeds into retirement stuff.
Id like to see a lot more local manufacturing/ag businesses open up to ease the supply chains before that personally.I honestly think they need to go back to 3-5%, these super low rates are just propping up the stock market and enriching the already rich that can take advantage.

Why was Trump trying to raise oil prices in summer of 2020 by getting the Russians and Saudis to cut production?Do you have a link. I always seem to do better during or immediately after a republican administration. Dems are always looking for excuses for why their policies don't work. It's why after 60 years of civil rights legislation, racism is still their rallying cry. All the while the Dems are trying to split the country into various fighting factions. It will destroy them from within.
Trump could have gas down below $2 a gallon again in 6 months, In fact I believe the gas prices are being driven up to highlight the stupid Dem energy policies.
Energy=Life, more energy use=higher quality of life

The biggest issue (that I am not sure how large it is atm) is the adjustable rate mortgages that were big prior to the 08 recession. If people start seeing their house payments drastically increase with the interest rates adjusting upwards it would be pretty devastating.

Im not saying it will spur business, I think that the problems with the production lines over the last few years (even Trump's closing of the border threats and auto manufacturers were an issue) is what will cause newer local industries to get rebuilt.I dont really see it as doing much to spur actual business, business doesn't hire due to an extra few percent, it goes into the owners pocket. Rates have been what they are for more than 10 years, it hasn't really done that. But hey, stock markets high.
Yes. Because it was news. Now go Google some shit. It occurred in April - June, 2020.You got a link? I'd tell you what I really think but would probably get locked out of this thread.

All of my land is family land. Even the 23 acres with the riverhouse we bought used to be my aunt's. So I would never sell any of it out of the family. I will most likely leave it to my great niece and nephews. (they are too young to have pissed me off, so we will see what happens when they grow up) Values really don't matter unless you are looking to sale.. . . . . . . . . .How is your property values doing in relation to your savings?
You could always take out a loan though if you got an opportunity/emergency though right?All of my land is family land. Even the 23 acres with the riverhouse we bought used to be my aunt's.

The last couple three years have been rough on savings. In relation to inflation, we are losing money. But more importantly, since I've only been working one day a week for the last two years, we are not actively saving new money. I'm a couple of months away from 61, so these years should be used to pad my nest. My wife's retirement is golden, so as long as she is alive we will be fine. (that is why I am able to work one day a week)
Yes, we could get a lone if needed. But we live within our means, so unless something major comes down the pike, I don't see this happening.You could always take out a loan though if you got an opportunity/emergency though right?
It is not just the one time sales that benefit people from owning land.
