For the longest time on 4chan’s literature board (which was a pretty useful and interesting place overall), there was a guy who would spam pictures and fan fiction of the girl from Willy Wonka getting turned into a blueberry.
I have weird fetishes, so I don’t judge too much, but wtf.

Not necessarily, if you own a home AND your pay slowly goes up to compensate (both of these unfortunately aren't happening for a lot of people), relative to your income your mortgage goes down.
Or in more generic terms, inflation is good if you borrow money.

at below the rate of inflation
Inflation going to 2% to 6% when you've got a credit card with a 30% APY is of very marginal benefit.

Inflation was added to your mortgage rate. And now that everyone saves with real estate instead of saving money, the cost of real estate is very high.
So while your payments do go down over time, your hours worked to either rent or own have gone up.
What do you mean with "inflation was added to your mortgage rate"? The prices of houses do go up but this is mostly a problem for first time buyers, after that your current house has gone up in price too, so that helps with the next house. But if you buy a house and don't move your mortgage is fixed for 20 or 30 years (unless you go without a fixed rate).
So your monthly payment will stay the same, while hopefully your salary goes up. -

I mean it more like if you would have borred 100K for a house in the 70s that was a lot of money, if you still live in that house you probably paid it back, but even if you didn't 100K today isn't that much money anymore

If your interest is less than inflation.
Like my colleague who bought a house for about 1.5% before inflation nearly went to 10. Man.
What does that mean? Where I live you borrow a certain amount of money and you pay it back plus interest (in my case 3.5%), and that percentage is fixed for 20 years. In 20 years I expect to have paid most of that entire amount back and my house should be mortgage free

New startup: BusGrub.
You put in an order for what you want and pick a timeslot a few hours in the future. E.g. for dinner, you put your order in at like at like noon and pick a 5-7pm window. Then, approaching your scheduled slot, a bus goes all around the area, picking up every order for that slot in the area, then swings around to each drop-off over the course of like two hours.
Result: Everyone enjoys cheaper, but gross soggy food.
Please give me $20 mil starting capital, thanks.

My niece was highly Uber eats dependent. Got her an air fryer for Christmas and it literally changed her life. Sometimes people want better but don't know how to get there

You are better off regardless of how much your interest rate is, as long as it is fixed. If your mortgage payments are fixed, but your pay increases with inflation, your real monthly mortgage payment goes down over time.
Eg, if your mortgage is $1000/mo, but at the end of this year a cheeseburger costs $1000, then your mortgage payment is the same cost as a cheeseburger. Doesn't matter if the interest rate you got originally was 1% or 99%.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]That's a historically unusual artifact of the financialized housing market in a country where the population outpaces new available housing units while the economy continues to grow.
Go to Italy or - God forbid - Iraq or Ukraine or Myanmar, and you'll find record inflation combined with falling real estate values. Buying a home in Lebanon or El Salvador or Bulgaria in 1975 wasn't a good move. You had to be a certain proximity near the US/EU money printing machines and a distance from the US/Russia bomb dropping machines to get that arbitrage to work.

I'm so happy to have grown up in a country where not learning to cook isn't an option.
