Deflationary Times - Cool Personal Checks

By Hank Masefield

People are often confused about the economic conditions they find themselves. Everything has a cool check about label, and the extremes are that either we are living in inflationary times or a period of deflation.

If the pervasive economic condition is deflationary, goods and services become less expensive. The accounting of the dollar increases. Many cannot grasp that relationship.

Opposite of inflation is deflation and with deflation, most assets decline in value. You see the value of your home decline in value as well as gasoline. Corporate equities, mutual fund shares, insurances and pension reserves and equity in non corporate business decline.

The value of the United States Dollar goes up in a deflationary environment. Quite the opposite of an inflationary environment.

When the price of the dollar increases, it also increases against foreign currencies. The dollar buys more.

Check the state of value of the dollar in your personal purchases. Is the dollar's value is going up? It's buying more gas than it used to, buys more real estate than it used to, and gets better deals shopping for cars than before. Everything costs less.

If most things seem to cost less that means you are living in deflationary times. If the price of goods and services are going up, you live in inflationary times.

The coolest, cool personal checks for the safest place to have you money in deflationary times in Treasury bills. The least ugly investment worldwide is U.S. currency.
