Your neighbor is a perfect example of why I chuckle when I read the articles on how to beat inflation. Just don't buy anything. "Yup, that's old Joe, never worried about losing buying power because of inflation over the years."
Thats the greatest! I'm going back home to visit my parents soon. I hope I can make enough my first day or two to cover all of my expenses while I'm gone so to focus on vacation fully. Sadly, even if I do, I'll probably trade the open and the close everyday. On second thought, I don't think it's sad at all. Lol.
