One example of thinking you are investing in the Safety quadrant but really investing in another is buying a normal federal government bond for the sole purpose of safety and wealth preservation.
If you consider that inflation goes up faster than interest rates paid by US Government bonds then the only way that the normal Federal Government bonds can help you is if we go through deflation. Which means stop printing money, stop spending money, start saving money. We don’t know about you but that is not our definition of the US federal government’s budget policy. Basically you have simply purchased a guaranteed loss in buying/purchasing power and you get to pay taxes on the interest received on the bonds which is less than inflation. Of course that is not to even mention what happens if our currency is obliterated from hyper inflation. We discus this issue in the Wealth Quadrant.
There is one type of government bond we do like. It is one that is a way to keep your principal protected and to protect you in case there is a depression of deflation. We discuss it a bit more under our Slash Your Risk course and site and in our _____________________________________________i Winning Investor Losing Investor course.
