    I’m just curious. If people could take their 2020 net worth and 2020 cost of everything vs 2024 net worth and 2024 cost of everything…..what are you guys choosing?

    If it’s not the latter, it tells me everything I need to know. So which is it?

    So you’re not gonna answer my question? Which of those two options would you choose?

    For most on this board, yes 2024 is “better” because of asset price inflation. Anyone under 35 is royally fucked though. Congrats.

    I’m under 35…..I’m not fucked, but I do respect that you answered my question Bob thanks.

    And just FYI, even accounting for inflation, your net worth should have rose 37%….unless YOU suck, but you have no one to blame but yourself.

    Why would I answer your question?

    Weird how M2 increased by roughly that % too.

    But it's not a bubble.

    I asked you a simple question (weird you didn’t answer it, it must not fit your narrative) . no one is defending anything. As usual, you got challenged with something that required critical thought and went apeshit on me!

    Inflation sucks no denying, but you have more wealth that outgrew inflation. Does that suck too?

    If you’re gonna blame Biden for food prices, are you gonna blame him for being richer?

    I've been on this board for years

    I don't owe you anything

    You're defending high inflation

    Let's see how that works in November

    The monthly cost of buying the median priced house has more than doubled also during that time. But CPI only has a plus ~22% cumulative effect.

    Things are great out there.

    Meant I'd take 2024, but I own plenty of assets, thus inflation is a rounding error to me. It's not to an overwhelming % of the population.

    I'd like to give the serfs a chance to own the land and not ring up crazy credit card debt, mainly so they don't violently take my land.

    Once again thanks Bob I appreciate the honest answer. I apologize for the namecalling on the other thread, probably let the husky defeat get to me.

    I'm glad BidenBros inflation doesn't devalue our currency! The comrades have always been great economists!

    You could get 18 percent on a CD in 1979

    For some reason voters still booted Carter out

    Money makes money regardless

    But the investor class is small. People that feel inflation are a large group

    Democrats were the party of the working man once upon a time

    Now you just suck if you aren't scoring big

    I keep bringing this up because those are not mutually exclusive things they are connected.

    My individual financial state is irrelevant

    Try to keep up

    2019 was better than now. And voters know it

    For the average Joe, they were far better off in March of 2020. Real wages were rising. Now they aren't. Border was pretty secure, now it's not. School attendance was much better. Test scores are now substantially down. Credit card debt way up. When I say leftards are intellectually uncurious, mello, the dazzler and now Buck are the prime examples.

    lol you’re being disingenuous and stubborn, but you’re entitled to your choice. I wish I had the power to give you your wish….you wouldn’t like it.

    So you’re taking your 2020 net worth and 2020 prices? I know you’re a Duck so that would make sense you wouldn’t progress in life.
