RE: So what? I'm not willing to sell anyways...
It's all about proper Perspective and ACCURATE, RELIABLE "Measurements."
I think in terms of “REAL MONEY” to the best extent possible.
I for one am inclined to think of everything in terms of true unshakable weights and measures, which brings such a common denominator to measuring all of one’s holdings in terms of the current (albeit corruptly-perceived fiat) weights of such relative to that of Gold and Silver, which, let’s face it, is the most honest and real money that ever was - and likely ever will be.
To get the most accurate and honest look at value and purchasing power, that’s what I look at – especially over long time-periods – and I would suggest in kind, that everyone else consider doing so as well.
Mind you, this paper/physical Gold/Silver fiat-metric relationship has also been stepped on in a most corrupt way, but be that as it may, it remains the absolute best arbiter that ever was and ever shall be insofar as measuring worth and enduring value over millennia.
The key is to stop thinking in FIAT DOLLARS and start thinking in ACTUAL PHYSICAL weights and measures, which ironically, is precisely what the long-lost American Constitution defined “exclusively” as money and legal tender.
Exactly when that part of the American Constitution was over-ruled and overwritten eludes me till this very day. The measure is still on the books, and it is still, technically, the rule of law in terms of the dictates of the Constitution.
But then again, how long has it been since the government pays any attention to the Constitution under which it is supposed to abide by via solemn oath.
It’s all been shat upon to no end, and as a result, it is every man and woman for themselves. What more proof do we need beyond the latest “crypto craze” of the last ten years…?
Don’t know if Crypto is the answer, but I can guarantee it’s certainly a symptom of the decades upon decades of sheer governmental corruption and monetary malfeasance…
I think crypto got started due to necessity. If it will be the one to solve all the bs or not, that is a whole different conversation. But the need for it, that to me is obvious.

Agreed, brother... No doubt about it... I just hope and pray that in the end, that it does far more good than harm for the majority of people who are counting on it.
