How Inflation Since 1930 Has Lowered USD Purchasing Power

As you know, in 1930, the US government decided to stop backing the USD with gold. Since that time, the USD has been referred to as ‘fiat currency,’ simply paper printed by the government and no longer backed by gold or any valuable tangible asset (explained more here). Before 1930, a one-dollar bill, though also a piece of paper, represented an equivalent value in gold. This meant that if you possessed a one-dollar bill, it was like owning a piece of gold worth one dollar at that time.

As a precious metal, gold doesn’t lose its value and purchasing power when used as money. This implies that the things you could buy with one gram of gold in 1930 can still be purchased now with the same one gram of gold. However, can you buy the same things now with one dollar as you could in 1930? No! The dollar, as a fiat currency, has lost 96% of its value (see the video below). The speed of USD value depreciation has been increasing in recent years, especially due to the continuous increase in the interest rate of this fiat money, while actual inflation is much higher than the official inflation rate. You can see evidence of this everywhere around you: How Much Is the Real Inflation? 7% or 75%?

Whether what they did in 1930 and afterward, and what they are doing now, is correct and right is something we have no control over. What we can control is our own lives. The million-dollar question is, should you be merely a victim of these decisions and let the economy dictate whatever it wants with your life? Or are there strategies you can follow to avoid being adversely affected by this challenging situation?

Indeed, being at the safe side and increasing your wealth under this condition is not that complicated. You just need to have the strategy and follow it:

1. Make More Money

If there are ways to increase your income or generate additional sources of revenue, consider pursuing them. While it requires investing more time and energy, it’s a necessary step. To stay ahead of inflation, dedicating more time and effort to earning additional income is crucial for progressing to the next financial level.

2. Protecting Your Savings’ Value

We all rely on banks and bank accounts. However, if you store your money in a bank account for the long term, it will lose its purchasing power and value. As mentioned earlier, $1 in 1930 is now worth only $0.04. Until you can accumulate enough savings to invest in assets like properties that generate passive income, if achieving that level seems years away due to limited income, it’s not advisable to keep your money in a bank account. Converting your savings into assets like gold (our gold program), which can be acquired in smaller increments with smaller amounts of money, is a solution to safeguard your savings against inflation. I have provided more detailed explanations here and here.

3. Generate Passive Income Sources:

Utilize the additional income you’ve earned to create passive income streams through assets that generate money without requiring your active involvement. While it may take time to achieve this, the key is to increase your income and save until you can afford to invest in income-generating assets.

As individuals, we can implement the strategies outlined above. Additionally, our community collectively pursues similar initiatives to generate both active and passive income, aiming to enhance the overall wealth of our members. Our objective is to elevate the monthly income of our active members to thousands of dollars, and we are committed to achieving this through sound strategies. Although it’s not an overnight accomplishment, we are confident that it will be realized gradually and steadily.

We achieve our goals, not immediately, but slowly and surely!
