It's so incredibly hard to hear someone go off about "how expensive everything is" and how "we dont get paid enough" and "how low wages are"...

Then explain to them that inflation literally causes all of this, and that the reason it feels like running on a treadmill is because **by default you get poorer if you dont get at least a 7% raise every year.**

And then they say "but nobody would buy anything if money got more valuable, it would ruin the economy."

Mothafukr you are LITERALLY linking the chains that you complain about weighing you down.

Yeah, it's sad. I have managed to people's attention with price estimation. Saying something like "buying only €1k of Bitcoin today is €16k in 10 years. How crazy is that?"

That's what truly grabs people's attention, but even then they don't look, they don't dig.

I told this to a friend of mine and he was like "wow, I'm gonna buy Bitcoin". He never talked about it again.

For me this is the greatest discovery ever, and especially taking into account what's happening right now, it's mind blowing. But for most people it's completely irrelevant. What a crazy world isn't it?

I think this is one of the weirdest things to be honest, a lot of people seem to be completely unaffected by the price alone
