It’s obvious the paper itself has no inherent value. You can’t walk around with tons of silver or gold. The cavemen had this argument already when they started using clamshells as coins. Get over it and go make money faster than it inflates. I’ve been living with inflation for over 50 years of work and “revinventment”, what I call retirement. It’s worked out fine, and those worthless dollars have paid for everything with no problem. I’ve converted them into houses, land, art, equipment, services, anything and everything I want.

The FED isn’t going away, might as well take what it gives, which is plenty. Inflation was around 14% when I started out. I didn’t even think about it, just went out and made my way. There wasn’t any other choice and there still isn’t. Now inflation is 2%, who cares. 2 or 20, it’s just the number to beat. The currency collapse fear-porn story has been around since before my first job. I’m lucky I’ve always ignored it.

You won’t be able to keep ignoring it if they have their way. You’ll need a vaccine passport to work, then they’ll transition to a mark of some kind, maybe a chip. If you’re ok with all that, well, then you have bigger problems.

It’s not a matter of if, it’s only a matter of when.
