    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

    So you’re taking your 2020 net worth and 2020 prices then?

    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

    So you’re taking 2019 Net Worth and 2019 prices over 2024 net worth and 2024 prices?

    I'm taking 2019

    Just like the voters

    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?

    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.

    If you have a point now would be a good time to reveal it

    Pretty sure you don't

    What good is net worth when it comes to daily expenditures? My house and my 401 are up- but unrealized gains don't help me pay the bills. Credit card debt is up and household savings are down. Go pick a better argument.

    I just proved my point. Everyone wealthier and outgrowing inflation by 37% on average. In turn are able to spend money which causes prices to go up.

    Case in point: National Championship game tickets were at least over $1000 the other day? Did anyone blink to buy those tickets? Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl? Nope. It sure looks like the average Joe had the money to fork out at least $3000 to make those games.

    How bad could it be? Unless you were a loser who isn’t disciplined financially (probably the Duck loser in this thread) in which it’s his own fault.

    So you’re taking your 2020 net wealth and 2020 prices is what you’re telling me Bob? I’m unclear with your answer

    I would take 2020 in a heart beat. Wouldn't have golden handcuffs to our current home and my wages went a lot further.

    I hate to break it to you, but mathematically speaking, if you make that choice you’re kind of a moron. I know you’re not a moron so youre just being disingenuous for the sake of holding your stubborn viewpoint.

    I know the Duck fan believes what he writes but he genuinely is a moron.

    Another leftard that is incapable of using facts and numbers and sh*t to make their point. Just a wad of feelings. You know who can't use facts and numbers and sh*t to make a point? An actual moron.

    The average Joe didn't go to the Sugar Bowl- he watched it at home and went to work the next morning, hoping the fuel pump in his truck would last until his next paycheck. I've been to the NCG- it's not chock full of folks living paycheck to paycheck.
