[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an economist. The dollar is still the safest currency on earth. It is not declining nearly as much as Fox News would have you believe.[/quote] That's funny, my husband is also an economist and we've steadily invested away from USD and into foreign currencies and commodities over the past decade. Our investments have appreciated significantly over that time.[/quote] The UST issued negative interest inflation protected bonds. That is how safe US dollars are - people are willing to accept negative interest. You invest in other currencies and assets to make money, not safely maintain your wealth. The money you make is the premium you earn for accepting risk. Your husband's being an economist doesn't mean YOU have any idea what you're talking about.[/quote]
