  High inflation can be a good thing, if you're working and in debt. The key worries are that the people with large assets overreact and you end in Nazi Germany (which was directly correlated with the austerity brought in by the rich to 'fix' inflation)

    Also working well with people who own assets. I refinance all my properties in the last year, at 2.3% interest despite inflation at 5%. Rents one of the biggest drivers so I'll likely be able to increase rent 10% when my tenants move out (generally wont raise if its the same tenant)
