This is the first time in my life that I’m not paying down debt aggressively. In fact, I’ve restructured my debt to pay it off as slowly as possible.
At 2.9% I am getting the money for free under the worst plausible scenario, but more likely I’m being paid to take the money under the most plausible scenario.
Real inflation is already above 3% and will likely hit 10%+ before this socialist mess runs its course.
I’m 100% certain that we will not be “suffering” through a bolstered dollar and deflation.
I am with you. Paying down credit card debt and the like is one thing, but eating beans to pay off a low fixed rate mortgage, like the Dave Ramsey drones are doing, is stupid. Blind hatred of the “money changers”, I guess.
