Hey....I’m making 30 bucks an hour at McDonalds. Nothing has changed.....
Too bad Bunker and Herbert are no longer around.
How did the crash happen? Slowly at first then all at once.
Par35. That’s the problem with the DXY. It doesn’t cover ALL currencies. However, I’m not sure where you are getting your numbers.
On Jan 2, 2015, it took about 67 rubles to purchase a dollar. I think you meant Jan 2, 2025. Regardless, the value of the ruble over time is trending DOWNWARD. Stretch your chart over a longer period of time.
Yeah. There are people who just trade currencies. I don’t know how they do that. It’s like watching grass grow. But when you see a trend, then if you are patient, you can make money from it.
It did!! LOL!
VTenigma, unfortunately, I might agree with you. We are living in different times. Right now, the timeframe is a few years. Who knows. It might turn into a few months.
Vermont, I agree with you. Yotube vids have their title “DOLLAR CRASHING!!” when in actuality, nothing could be further from the truth. My analysis isn’t perfect, but is based on how the “cycles” have played out so far. There’s nothing that said it won’t change and accelerate to the downside or even upside.
If I said 2015, it was a typo. Thanks for catching that. I was doing ‘year to date’ numbers. (adjusting around the holiday as best I could from quickly found non-AI data).

For millions it’s already crashed...
You can’t get that by me. I deliver mail and Amazon. Even my most poor customers are Amazon lovers. 2,3, sometimes more packages per day of soda, snacks, toilet paper and whatever else they buy.. It’s gotten outta hand. They don’t even go shopping at the grocery store anymore. This means they are paying shipping or have the $120. a year per subscription.
How do you know the incomes of all your Amazon customers? And how do you know none of them go to the grocery store anymore?
Either you’re being facetious or you’re just another bull shitter on the Internet. I’d guess you’re the latter. Get real.
I’ve been delivering mail for 20 years. I live here. These are me neighbors. I know these people. You’re just an azz.
You’re just an azz.
Snort! Thanks for the laugh. I needed that.☺
Using silver as a benchmark, the 2025 dollar is worth about two cents in 1964 money.
Sorry all, the 2025 dollar is worth 3.2 cents in 1964 money.
I redid the math. In 1964 you could take a dollar bill into a bank and walk out with .7731 oz silver. That silver is now worth $30.92, so 1/30.92=$.0323.
the USD is losing value, right
but the valuation is not going down gradually or slowly
it is a pretty fast descent, has been for several years
