For months, the hosts of Onward — Ben Miller, Fundrise CEO, and Cardiff Garcia — have discussed the many ways that the current, high inflation environment will impact the broader economy and behavior of investors. In this latest episode, Ben brings a brand new idea to the table: a specific theory outlining how our financial system is on the verge of real crisis and potential collapse. Join us to hear Ben explain how the practice of using loans as the assets for generating new loans has created a snarled chain of lending. Now that interest rates have exploded to new highs, what happens when one loan in the chain comes due, and refinancing is impossible? What exactly do we mean when we say, “Turtles all the way down”? And, lastly, how is Fundrise positioned to capitalize on what Ben calls a potentially once in a lifetime opportunity? Listen to the latest episode of Onward for answers to all these questions, and more.
