April 18, 2022 | Savers from 18 to 85 Are Getting Totally Screwed
The Fed has been screwing savors for decades – but with inflation at 8.5% and rising, now it’s a real negative-yield bloodbath. Savers use to get 5% or 6% in a Certificate of Deposit 20 years ago. With a $1 million, you could make $50,000 to $60,000 in interest per year without touching the […]

April 15, 2022 | Yes, It Is Different This Time
From Charles Hugh Smith at Of Two Minds: Most people would be horrified by a 40% decline in their “investments.” When bubbles pop, speculative assets don’t drop 40%, they drop 90% or even 98%.
