Borrowed Consumption: Opium of the Masses / Economics / Debt & Loans

By: Kurt_Kasun

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleMy last commentary touched off a mini-debate between myself and Michael Pento, a proponent of Austrian Economics who gallantly defends his principles against the Keynesian economists and supply-side monetarists when he makes his appearances on CNBC's Kudlow & Company. I too attempt to follow the Austrian economic precepts laid out by Ludwig von Mises and I think that the bone of contention between us, in the "posted comment section" after my initial commentary, boils down to the following von Mises' quote:

Poor Understanding of Monetary Value of 1% / Personal_Finance / Debt & Loans

By: Nationwide

Research from Nationwide Building Society reveals that 75% of people in the UK don't understand the monetary value a 1% difference in mortgage rates can make. A 1% difference in rates on a five year fixed rate mortgage deal could be worth over £4,000*. When given details of two five year mortgage deals to compare, the largest group of respondents (28%) said they thought the difference on a £120,000 mortgage with an interest rate at 5.6% compared to a rate of 6.6% would be between £500 and £2000. Another 23% said they had no idea at all. Only 25% of people correctly identified that the difference could be £4,000.

My Two Cents - "The Complacent Consumer" / Economics / Debt & Loans

By: Andy_Sutton

For a long time now as I've watched consumers collectively dig themselves into debt-oblivion, I have wracked my brain trying to figure out why they are doing it. Recently, what I will call consumerism seems to be escalating as we have watched demand for gasoline defy the laws of economics. Instead of focusing on the product, I think it is appropriate to spend some time reflecting on the mentality behind recent behavior.

This week I am teaming up with a popular My Two Cents contributor CJH from Maryland to take a look at American consumerism....

By: Submissions

Cheryl Corker writes - IVAs were introduced by the government in 1986 as a legitimate alternative to bankruptcy.
