You pay for it one way or the other, rates or inflation.
Historically, rates need be 2% higher than the inflation rate, so based upon their bullshit inflation rate of 8.6, you should expect rates to be at least 11%.
The not so funny part of that, is once rates go over 4%, they will need to print money to service the debt, and exactly how you get yourself into hyperinflation.
Not only that, as other countries collapse they’ll want to have dollars instead of euros or lira or whatever trash currency they have, even more so with higher interest rates, putting even more pressure on inflation as other countries collapse into the US.
TLDR; the more they raise interest rates the higher inflation goes. Hyperinflationary collapse happens no matter what.
That means my savings account will gain more interest. I just saw a 15 month CD for 3%, probably go higher soon. I’m not buying a house or car for quite a few years so I’m good. My next car will be bought with cash. Living within my means for the past 15 years is paying off.
Interest rates being as low as they were, it just put the leverage in sellers' hands. The low rates made houses incredibly affordable. Now, the leverage is back in buyers' hands. People will still be buying and selling homes.
The car loans going under have admittedly been poorly underwritten. They were handing out loans to folks who don't necessarily have an ability to repay.
Carrying a balance on credit cards has always been a bad idea, but now it's a bit worse of an idea.
They pump money into the economy and then blame "rising wages" rather than their money printing and so the only solution is to cull the wages. The elite will continue to gorge themselves on additional wealth which they pick up during these times. You are already starting to see "plutonomy" styled splits in many sectors.
Right now we have a choice between stagflation, which is the worst combination of recession and inflation, versus hyperinflation, which will destroy US money entirely. This was all caused by our addiction to both overseas products and massive money printing. Pick one.
Depends on the loan. Read your paperwork, if it’s a variable rate, then yes up goes your interest rate. If it’s fixed, then nothing to worry about until your next loan.

You can't eat precious metals. Sure keep. A small bag for trading but the real value is in food and durable goods.

Yeah the white house has launched an investigation into crypto, it won't be long before they announce a ban and then it will plummet in value.

I bought it January 2020 before everything started tumbling.
Does this mean my interest rate will go up or I'm locked in and this is for people currently buying cars?
