Nice pull. Was wondering about this very thing recently. Had only seen that other chart tracking the wild volatility as things melted up
Discussion
I might just mirror the Weimar chart. With BRICs loading up on gold and dumping US treasuries, things are going to get wild
Wild is great (so long as it makes me rich)!
Have you read when money dies? Highly recommend
Yessir. Audio. And some of the inconsistent currency conversions he'd recite were a nightmare, but it was otherwise worth reading. It'd be cool to read another book from that time and place.
Try this one: Fiat Money Inflation in France
No audio, but cheap on Mises website. Into looks interesting
France tries fiat brrrrr in the 1700s; fails most miserably lol
Haha figured. You've read it I assume? I like how old it is...
Yea, I've read the first half of it. Need to finish it lol
It's written in beautiful old English. Really dig it
Not necessarily a bad sign. Been doing that with a lot of good books these days.
Cool, it's on the maybe list
I'm so bad at it. I just can't get pass the first half 😫
It's sometimes enough. For example, the original book we were talking about, think it's worth reading partially. Whole thing, meh, not necessary
