@jameslavish

If you work 40 hrs/wk: at 5% inflation and after 5 years, you need a 28% pay raise or to work 44 more hours (*one full extra week* per month+) to make up the difference.

This is inflation

Buying when the equities market is at an all time high in the middle of a massively F'ed economy is probably not the best time to buy.

This roller-coaster is about to come off the tracks from my POV.

I concur...

Over the past 3-7 years we have moved 60%+ of our "Stocks and such" to hard tangibles...

Strategic buying... of bargains... that have absolute value and/or function.

What to buy today at "great value"? Hard to say.
