Kleine kritische noot, als "tijden veranderd zijn" voor sparen/inflatie wat geeft ons dan de garantie dat hetzelfde niet geldt voor globale groei/rendement?
Maar, zelfs als pessimist blijft dan de vraag wat het alternatief zou moeten zijn.

This Time Is Different
Eight Centuries of Financial Folly
by Carmen M. Reinhart & Kenneth S. Rogoff
Princeton University Press © 2009
Takeaways:
• The central bankers, policy makers and investors involved in every financial bubble
are utterly convinced that, in terms of economic events, “this time is different.”
• Otherwise-savvy people ignore the telltale signs of a bubble when they are in the
grasp of “this-time-is-different syndrome.”
• Even brilliant thinkers like former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan fall
victim to this syndrome.
• Bankers and economists in the ’20s predicted that wars would not recur and the
future would be stable.
• From 2003 to 2007, conventional wisdom said central bankers’ expertise and Wall
Street innovations justified soaring home prices and rising household debt.
• In fact, rising home prices and financial innovation are strong indicators of a bubble.
• Currency debasement was common for centuries. In the past 100 years, inflation
has replaced debasement.
• Sovereign defaults are a normal part of global capitalism, although they ebb and flow.
• Financial crises have occurred regularly over the past two centuries.
• To avoid future bubbles, bankers and economists should use an early-warning
system and a stricter regulatory scheme
