đš Eye-Opening Fact: The Dollarâs Buying Power Has Shrunk đ”đ
Since 1971, the U.S. dollar has lost around 90% of its purchasing power.
What once filled an entire shopping basket now covers only a small portion of it.
đ§Ÿ How this erosion happens:
âą Long-term inflation
âą Expanded money supply over time
âą Rising costs for everyday goods and services
đ Reality check:
A currency can appear âstrongâ on paper while still quietly losing value year after year.
đïž The bigger picture:
Fiat currencies change over time, while scarcity tends to preserve value.
Because of this, many people pay closer attention to assets like commodities and digital alternatives as part of broader economic discussions.
