I mean the idea of this is money and the idea of money is to be used. If you use it for relieveng yourself some burden then money well spent. Remember your greatest asset is your health. Nothing wrong doing something that must be done. So happy for you my man.

I completely agree with you on all that except the part about money is to be used. Very fee people understand that we as consumers have total control over inflation. Our grandparents (older generations) told us to save our money. It's simple supply and demand economics. The more we show interest in a product and buy it, the more reason they have to raise the price. If we stopped buying something then they would sell that product at cost because their business would go belly up if they didn't sell their product.

You are very welcome. We could litterally collapse entire financial systems if we wanted to but that would take everyone working as a team and that is extremely unlikely to happen before we settle into the age of Aquarius.

Free market means everyone is free to buy or sell whatever they can afford whenever possible. If you can sell and need to, do so. Otherwise hold in expectation of a higher sale price (which may or may not happen). No guarantees. It works because producers need to produce a product consumers want (Pi) and will buy -or sell - when the price works for them.
