Damn I haven’t even started thinking about the inflation beyond the horizon

Historically, yes, real estate has performed relatively well in inflationary environments. The one caveat I would add is that inflation will mean higher interest rates, and higher interest is not usually good for real estate prices. I prefer Gold! twitter.com/Digoriii/statu

Old enough to think printing money=inflation. Then 2008 happened and broke that view. Most people today only known 2008 and think printing money != inflation. But fewer businesses and higher cost of operating a business and inputs seems to mean price inflation.

Go brr on its own won't necessarily do anything. Like in 08, lots of money was "printed" but wasn't let out into the rest of the economy. Banks didn't run wild lending, they actually reigned it in. I think future inflation comes from UBI/mass unemployment benefits, and onshoring

In 2008 inflation from addl. money seemed to have been countered by other factors like higher productivity and deflationary trends in products like tech, food, and clothing. What level of money printing is too much? Any models that can help?
