personally I would look at the facts a huge majority of the country is up to its eyes in debt, very few people can now afford to get onto the property ladder, manufacturing is at an all time low and world affairs are as volatile as they ever have been ........... AND my cossie needs AP6 pots and I can't afford 'em

this inflation rise is the bizarre beginning I believe, buy yes but only if you can comfortably afford it as in the long run its unlikely you will lose out
