This is probably why he didn't accept the wager:comic boy wrote:Yes I would ignore joe if I was you because he has run rings around you, I notice you didnt accept his wagerYou use words like dire but the term is relative and in truth there is zero chance of the USA suffering from hyper inflation in the short term, to become a basket case like Zimbabwe does not happen overnight and for an economy as big as yours it would take very many years of mismamagement on a scale far in excess of what is actually happening.
There is a global depression so clearly there is scope for short term pain and a degree of inflation but this does not equate with the doomsday scenario that you envisage, not even close.
If he wins, he gets $10,000 which is hardly worth anything.
If joe wins, he gets $10,000 which is worth a lot more.
It would be foolish to accept that bet. Use your head, comic.
