Well, lately, they are doing the electronic equivalent of just running
the printing presses. And the world is noticing- the exchange rates


That would be an improvement over the insane borrowing. Both devalue
the money, but the latter requires payback.

I predicted raging inflation a decade ago; how else can the U.S. deal
with the ten trillion dollar debt? Made it worth the equivelent of 100
billion!

Remember that when your retirement plan sends you a check based on what
money is worth today, and a loaf of bread is fifty bucks....

If you're investing in stock, especially foreign stocks, that should
actually work out OK for you.

If you have some other kind of plan... well...

Careful, living on the Right Side of The Pond, I invested on the Left Side
as I thought that the £ was on the way down internationally (as it was). My
original investments on the Left Side were doing well until the crunch. I
had too much in banks, Lehman in particular. That one cost me more than an
average new auto.

Well, yeah, that's the trick. if you're trying to offset a currency
that's going down by investing in a currency that's going up, or at
least not going down as much, you have to get it right.

....and if you're going to ask advice on that, you probably want to ask
someone more tapped in than I...
