β€œIn hyperinflation, a kilo of potatoes was worth, to some, more than the family silver; a side of pork more than the grand piano. A prostitute in the family was better than an infant corpse; theft was preferable to starvation; warmth was finer than honour, clothing more essential than democracy, food more needed than freedom.”

― Adam Fergusson, When Money Dies

Need more ammo.

Desperation makes people easily accept pointers fingers at a scapegoat. Need more ammo indeed.

You also need to form a group that have skills to help survive.

This is the way!

An excellent book about the German Hyperinflation of the Weimar Republic. Coming to a town near you?

Hyperinflation, Venuzuela.

One more for the road. There but for the grace of God, go I.

A lesson to not be forgotten!

Listening to chapter 4 now!

Everyone will find a way to survive during hyperinflation. I choose Bitcoin.

Same. Struggling to stack something. Inflation is a bitch already and this isn't her last word for sure. Polish govt sent very big help for UA, including money, arms(sometimes from the active units!) and their currency stabilization with ours. Result 18.4% CPI inflation and real about 30%. I will have to use my stack soon probably to live. I hope at least at higher prices. Those who own #Bitcoin will be in much better shape when shit really hits the fan.
