>But choosing between a 0% bank account or real estate investing is a major false dichotomy. Ok, so interest rates are near zero. A ton of money is leaving the bond market and going to stocks. Price of stocks is being pushed up due to the increase in money chasing yield there. These companies didn't get more valuable, your earnings per share just went down. Now you're anticipating inflation as printing money is a great way to get out of the next crisis when your interest rate can't get any lower. This personally leads me to real estate.
