We know that most decisions are in part, based on expectations of the future. Suppose we have two people who are trying to decide whether to consume today (assume it is currently January 2008) or save for the future and consume one year later, in January 2009. One person, let's call him Joe, is basing his decision on the ex-ante real rate of interest like most of us do. The other person who has a crystal ball, we'll call her Crystal, can see exactly what the actual rate of inflation is going to be and thus, has perfect foresight and bases her decision on the ex-post real rate. Look at the difference in the ex-ante and ex-post real rates you calculated in #25 and # 26 above. Who would be more likely to save and who would be more likely to spend? A. Both Joe and Crystal are savers. B. Both Joe and Crystal are spenders. C. Crystal saves, Joe spends. D. Crystal spends, Joe saves.
