    I'm taking 2019

    Just like the voters

    Are you better off today than 4 years ago is what sunk Carter

    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
    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.
    I sit in one of the hottest real estate markets in the country the last few years and nothing is selling. Prices dropping. Homes of all types including mansions or bare land it doesn't matter. Shit ain't selling. If you can't sell your unrealized assets they aren't real assets. The drop in the value of the dollar is showing itself everywhere. You voted for 20 million illegals. We're giving them 5k debit cards, nice hotels, 2500 a month and your gang of commies is registering them to vote.

    I would take 2020 in a heart beat. Wouldn't have golden handcuffs to our current home and my wages went a lot further.
    Yeah but people bought tickets to the sugar bowl
    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.
    The average Joe DID go to the Sugar Bowl. I was there, I conversed with many of them.

    Then check out the Rose Bowl. Filled with about 65,000 Alabama fans. None of those guys were average Joes? Those tickets were going for at least $450. I'm sure you guys already know that answer, just playing stupid because you can't argue against it.

    But back to my practical example here. National Championship tickets were at least $1000 and were actually going the other direction after kickoff. Why weren't they selling for $300? Because the sellers knew they could sell them at $1000 because people could afford to buy them at that price. Did Biden tell them to sell at $1000?

    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.
    The value of my home does nothing to help me now. Real estate appreciates over time under almost all scenarios, not just massive inflation periods where my daily expenses rose by probably 25% over a two year span. Money isn't in my pocket from my home value until I actually sell it and all of the other real estate is massively more expensive, too.

    Real estate, stocks, bonds, etc. All good if people were invested in them and they went up. All are worthless until the point you can cash them out. Real buying power of wages is what matters here and now.

    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?
    My individual financial state is irrelevant

    Try to keep up

    2019 was better than now. And voters know it

    Real wages are up.

    Losers lose in any economy.

    Bummer for Race.

    You're using the example of football tickets holding value to explain that the everyman is in good financial shape? LMAO There were 72k fans there out of 330 million citizens. I went to the game not because I could afford to go, but because I HAD to go. People make irrational choices with money all the time, hence the record credit card debt.

    Thanks for clarifying- my use of statistics was trumped by your "conversing with the average Joe".

    No 401K, No IRA, No Stock Portfolio? With the DOW at an all time high, those are all at an all time high....for everyone.

    If you didn't set aside and aren't disciplined financially, you're screwed anyway bro. Dont blame anyone else for being irresponsible.
