My husband and I recently moved to Okinawa, Japan.

Africa and Southeast Asia outside China, Japan, and Singapore need careful watching.

Here is my plan:Jan 2020 - March 2020Buy my first property, located in NC, while I’m stationed in Okinawa, Japan… Read the rest, and please tell me why I should, or should not wait on buying the first propertyThis is what I will be leaving the military with (May 2020):If I don’t buy a property, around $100k ($25k of which is in a Roth IRA) The GI Bill - allows me to go to most public universities for free for 36 months, and provides a monthly housing allowance.July 2020-May 2021I plan on attending trade school for carpentry in the fall/spring semesters.

We leave China and Japan holding our debt, they keep taking it because they have no where else to keep it.

It's already affecting Europe and Japan more acutely than the US, but we are on our way.

I own multiple rental properties specifically designed to cater to foreign tourists in Kyoto, Japan.

A few years ago Japan PM screamed at the top of his lungs when the economy gets going im going to raise taxes."

Not sure about East Asia aside from Japan (not talking slums there of course) but their declining population turns me off. 

If debt starts to go bad it could mean massive deflation and ultimately a repricing of all the assets the fed has supported these last 10 years, aka japan in mid nineties with real estate never(as of yet) recovering.If they succeed it means asset prices and gold will soar!

If printing unlimited amounts of money and funneling cash directly into the economy was enough to cause inflation on it own then we would be seeing hyper inflation in Japan and several European countries.Inflation is determined by money growth and the velocity of money, with velocity of money being the main determinant.
