Think you’re building wealth with stocks, real estate, or other “appreciating assets”?
Hate to break it to you… you’re just trying not to drown in a pool the government keeps peeing in.
Let’s talk inflation, taxation, and why Bitcoin matters.
You’re not actually “getting ahead.”
You’re treading water.
Why? Because the dollar is constantly being devalued through endless government spending and money printing.
Your house didn’t get more valuable.
The dollar just got worse.
Inflation is the silent thief.
It doesn’t rob your wallet — it robs your purchasing power.
And to keep up, you’re forced to buy assets like stocks or real estate.
Not because they’re amazing,
but because dollars are melting like ice cubes in July.
But here’s the kicker…
Once your assets “go up” in price (really just tracking inflation), the government shows up like:
“That’s a gain! Time to pay taxes!”
Never mind the fact that:
•You bought them with already-taxed income
•The “gain” isn’t real wealth
•You’re just fighting inflation
So let’s quickly summarize:
- The dollar keeps losing value
- You’re buying assets just to stay afloat
- The government taxes your fake gains
- Rinse and repeat
Starting to feel like a rigged game? That’s because it is.
Enter Bitcoin:
A monetary system designed not to punish savers.
Fixed supply. No central planners. No hidden inflation tax.
It’s not just an investment — it’s an exit from the madness.
