inflation: Is It Time To Invest In Real Estate? - 08/25/11 01:08 PM
Is it time to invest in real estate? With everything that is going on in the economy, this is a major concern for almost everybody.
Let's look at this with a pragmatic eye:
Is America your home?
Is it going to continue to be your home?
Will our economy eventually recover?
Is inflation an absolute certainty over the next ten years?
Will interest rates stay this low?
When real estate"recovers" do you want to be an owner?
If we assume that America will continue to be your home and that when things stabilize owning real estate will be desirable, then the coming inflation is … (9 comments)

inflation: Is There a Single Person that Understands Money? - 08/16/07 06:35 PM
They say that we have a sub-prime meltdown in this country. What exactly does that mean? Well, apparently it means that if your credit score is too low you can forget about getting a home loan. Why? Is the money all gone?
Money is one of those things that is hard to define. So hard in fact the government has a bunch of definitions for it. M1, m2, m3, or m whatever. There are more definitions of money supply than you can shake a stick at.
Some people believe that the consumer price index is the measure of inflation but money supply by … (13 comments)

inflation: 16 to 1 : What the Hell Does That Mean? - 07/28/07 02:57 PM
A little bit of history re-printed from an article posted on Vassar's website should shed some light on what is going on now in the U.S. It has always been a war between East and West. The "Big Bankers" in the East (read that New York City and Hartford, CT) want to dominate our economy. We in the West would like to control our own destiny.
The Eastern Establishment includes the media that supposedly reports on the economy and what is happening, when in fact they are pursuing an agenda to affect the economy in ways that benefit them.
Right now they are … (10 comments)

inflation: Crazy Prices! - 07/26/07 05:10 PM

Some people think that the recent run up in the price of a single family residence is some kind of conspiracy.
If there was a conspiracy it extended all the way up to the Federal Reserve Board because the price of a house can be demonstrated to be a function of the monthly payment (on the mortgage) and that is a function of the interest rate on a home loan. When the Fed ran the interest rates down to zero, the corresponding bond rate for a Fannie Mae loan package was also at a very low rate.
The average buyer, whether for big … (6 comments)

inflation: Sub-Prime Meltdown - Is It Really? - 07/17/07 01:50 PM
Where did all the money come from that fueled the sub-prime lenders?
The simple answer: Wall Street. But what does that mean?
Every year our money supply is greater than it was the year before. This is called inflation. Inflation is NOT an increase in price level, it is an increase in the money supply. The Federal Reserve Bank (the "Fed") is charged with managing the money supply. If the money supply were to "contract" which is the opposite of grow it could lead to Depression. We absolutely don't want a Depression. Therefore the Fed causes or allows (however you want to … (15 comments)
