Is Renting Stressful? - Holiday Economic Gift

Can this really be true?

"Renting is so stressful that it leads to faster biological aging than home ownership, according to new research. The impact of renting on biological age was almost double that of unemployment, and 50% greater than living as a former smoker, according to a study from U.K. and Australian researchers published Tuesday in The British Medical Journal’s Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health" (FORTUNE)

Sounds a little dramatic. But it does appear that home owners have a sense of accomplishment, place, and security. In Marin County, it's also a been a fantastic investment for many portfolios. Prices here have never been inexpensive, but once you're in, you're in. Beautiful place to live, a solid tax write-off, with a historical record of healthy appreciation since 1965.

On another topic, we have a Holiday economic gift!

Here's todays Wall Street Journal lead article:

" Prices Fell in November for the First Time Since 2020. Inflation Is Approaching Fed Target."

"The Fed’s preferred inflation measure, the personal-consumption expenditures price index, fell 0.1% in November from the previous month, the first decline since April 2020, the Commerce Department said Friday. Prices were up 2.6% on the year, not far from the Fed’s 2% target. "

"The real surprise I think was how low PCE inflation came in,” said Scott Anderson, chief U.S. economist at BMO, who thinks Fed officials will cut rates four times in 2024 starting in July. “We’re really on that glide path for the Fed by the middle of next year.” "
