[QUOTE="Up In Smoke, post: 5282392, member: 79702"] If you've prepared well, it shouldn't be a factor. This looks to be about the 15th worst inflation event in the last 100 yrs. Difference this time is nearly full employment, a robust economy and near 0% interest rates. The fed could stomp out inflation in the matter of weeks if it raised rates by 3-4%. The problem with a radical move like that is sending the economy into a instant recession and sending the housing market into the tank. By easing rates and QT they hope to suppress spending to a level that maintains full employment and allows the housing market to remain strong. If you are going into retirement worrying about interest rates, unemployment and inflation you didn't prepare well. IMO [/QUOTE]
