Many economists and market analysts think that ‘moderate to significant’ inflation is months or, at most, a few years away due to ‘quantitative easing’ of the (not quite so) Federal Reserve Bank (i.e., their decision to “print” and/or make available unheard of amounts of money/credit). Question: IF one were of the opinion that significant inflation is around the corner, would it make more sense to enter into a longer term lease (or buy commercial real estate), especially at a time when you might be able to make a good deal due to the poor economy? I think if that projected inflation due to printing money comes to pass, it will be hyperinflation Weimar style and we can probably hang it up at that point. People will spend all the money they have getting available food at any price and they’ll have neither the money nor the motivation to hire us. What keeps me up nights is the prospect of whether I will end up getting paid my no look fees for all of the chapter 13 cases I have been filing, in the event it gets to the point people just can’t make their Plan payments anymore.
