  1. Japan is exactly why I'm concerned about the American stock market (or western ones in general): The central bank being a major driver in keeping the stock market growing and replacing more and more what banks normally did because they don't want to lend as much, a problem that hasn't really gone away since 2008

  5. As far as I know many homes are getting bought up by investment firms, who unlike individuals to get easy credit for homes. It also seems like they're the main reason why prices quickly had gone above 2008 levels despite 2008 being a bubble

  9. I wouldn't say scammed. If someone is moving to an area with significant lower prices they might be willing to pay a bit more to get exactly what they want

  11. "Once the price of Starbucks coffee goes up it won't go down" Actually, that's quite possible Having a positive inflation just means prices on average rise, but that doesn't mean some prices can't fall. Just look at oil, electronics, etc. Oil had quite it's up and down, electronics is getting cheaper for the same thing. 2008 was a one off? Why? In 2008 the problem effectively was people not being able to pay the price, which is increasingly a problem too today. So the risk is certainly there. The main reason for the prices to keep rising after 2008 was actually because regulations on institutions buying homes were loosened, so they could now buy individual homes and for me it seems the main reason for prices to keep rising. But they won't be able to collect rents at an rate increasing as fast
