The inflation metrics the Fed uses aren't a great metric to actually calculate inflation. They try to deceive you by saying it's only 2% ish over long term. While the broad money supply was 19B in 1913 and in 2024 it's roughly 21 Trillion. (!) That's more than 1000x on 110 years, which is roughly 7% per year average. The capital per person in the US was 193 dollars and now it's 64k! That's 315x, an average of rougly 6% per year.

This is about the same as the increase in house prices on average.

Don't be deceived, a 4-5% yield on a bond will still lose you purchasing power. Bitcoin is the solution.
