A lot of this stuff is getting tough to ignore. Everytime I turn around Zelenski is asking for another $10 Billion, Biden is promising to cancel student debt even though he isn't authorized to do so, and now we are sending some of our best ships to the Middle East. It's not like any of this is new. We occupied Afganistan for 20 years and then just left all the equipment in a replay of the Vietnam War pullout.
They just replay the same stuff all the time. It's insane and we are all paying for it.
There will be some opportunities into the future to buy raw land but the next generations might have to focus more on digital real estate investments. At least we have true ownership of our Hive, Steem, and Blurt accounts.
All the markets are weird right now. A car I bought 4 years ago is worth more now compared to the US Dollar. The inflation isn't going away anytime fast because of all the continued over printing by the government.
A lot of people have two jobs and I guess there are over 400,000 people in the United States with two fulltime jobs which would be 40 hours a piece typically.
I was noticing last year a lot of people having two jobs just to pay rent. Not to actually own anything.
Its going to take a lot to claw our way out of this one.
The odd thing is the gas prices were fairly low today.
Basically $3 / gallon for 87 octane. I was expecting fuel prices to go up but they did issue a warning on International travel. Maybe a lot of people are battening down the hatches.
