A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Also you generally want the most financially prudent decision a business can make not to be "sit on the money until it's worth more".
Inflation encourages spending money, deflation encourages saving money.
It's even worse when the citizens do this.
That's what I meant by "black Friday will look like the current housing market."
I can see how that wasn't a totally clear point though
