Wealth? You want fixed rate debt right now if it’s all collapsing and we have a decade of unstoppable inflation upon us.

i-Bonds are limited at 10K, and bond funds seem risky if rates will go up ?

Or are there specific bond funds for this unique time?

The financial markets are predicting 2.15% inflation over the next 10 years:

Good muck to anyone placing their trust in internet forum hot takes.

Bond funds are generally a poor way to invest in bonds, especially in a rising interest rate environment.

No I’m saying you want to go in debt!

Hm can you explain more? Go into debt and do what with the money?

But housing could well crash, so mortgages are out.

What type of loans are we supposed to be getting?

Home equity loans, etc.

A home equity loan with a risk of a housing crash?

Hyper inflation more likely. Get a loan while money is cheap. Housing will come back no matter what anyways. But honestly could be 3x their cost today in 10 years. No one is selling anyways.

Wages are moving down in real terms. Many home purchases are made with 40% of gross income presently. Increased (3x) home costs would mean buyers would be paying out an even higher percentage of gross income. Eventually too many buyers are unable to buy housing and the party is over. I think we are already there, so 3x housing prices (and 3x rental prices) in 10 years seems very unlikely.

The printer will go burr and wages will increase because a load of bread is $10. Most of todays debt will be wiped out.
