I used to have a silver collection. Over 20 yrs ago my parents took it and traded for the cash value of the coinage, not the metal, to pay 1 month of mortgage. Currently it would've been valued at over $250k.
>>
this is like saying that because the federal minimum wage in dollars was equivalent to 1 bitcoin 15 years ago minimum wage workers were technically making 100k per hour

>>526527186
No shit retard. People have only gotten marginally more productive. Yet the cost of energy, extracting oil/ fracking/ solar is all 10x more expensive than the GUSHERS we used to have.

Billionaires are causing all of America's wealth to be stored and locked away at the very top

It's what happens when you mistake usury for money.

>>526527571
silver is historic true money going back thousands of years while Bitcoin is digital chuck e cheese tokens which are only purchased in the hope of selling to a future greater sucker

These memes are gonna need perpetual progress updates because silver went parabolic and its never going back down lmao
It gets so much worse before it gets worse
>>
>>526527186
minimum wage in 1961 was $1.15
boomers were paid $80 of silver for an hours work. Absolutely gut wrenching
>>
>>526527808
Amen
Save your silver shekels for the King of kings at His Temple
And cast your "crowns" at His Feet
Jesus Is Lord
Christ Is King

>>526527833
it doesn't matter, both have gone up in price
sure half a century ago if you had the foresight and the means then you could've saved silver for all these years and cash out now but it's stupid to act as if silver has always had its current price in dollars
just like bitcoin
do you get it because i see this retarded shit all the time online and i'm annoyed at the rampant economic illiteracy
>>
>>526527922
now go back to the great depression, the average person annually made an amount equal to whats now around half a million USD in gold. in 1913 it was around $625,000
>>
>>526528089
>cash out
all that would have done is protect your savings from real inflation. but once you cash out now your money is becoming worthless again
>>
>>526527186
Those are quarters and not half dollars, right?
>>
>>526527186
It says the minimum wage in 1963 was 1.25/hr
A boomer could work an hour and get 5 of those bad boys. Thats an ounce of silver for an hour of minimum wage work.
Today, an ounce of silver for an hour’s work is worth 94.00$. Well above minimum wage now, kek

So much real wealth has been robbed from us. Thanks Henry Kissinger, jews and boomers
>>
>>526528089
ok let's say they were too stupid to understand the crazy concept that money is money and put it in the stock market instead?
>>
>>526528310
well if you're never going to cash out then there's no point in talking about the cash worth of your assets
but the point is that people weren't all rich in the past just because the currency they used is NOW worth a lot because it wasn't THEN
>>
>>526528346
Yes, a dollar twenty five in 90% silver coinage.
>>
>>526528640
What is this post even trying to say?
>>
>>526527186
Exponential depreciation of paper is a bitch, eh?

Damn, I wonder who was responsible for that.
>>
>>526528640
it doesn't matter because shares that become more valuable over time work the same way in that regard as silver and bitcoin
you're talking about long term investments
>>
>>526528731
Boomers could have held on to pocket change and retired off it
They could have thrown a couple thousand dollars into stock market in the 1970s and retired off it
They could have bought a house to live in and retired off it.
They just had to breathe to become a millionaire. They fell upward. We now have to work our asses off for SCRAPS due to them getting in on ground floor of greatest ponzi scheme to ever exist (the USD) and making their own children the greater fools to feed it. Actually that wasn't enough to feed it they had to import half the third world here as well.
Day of the pillow can't come soon enough.

I'm talking about your worthless sack of shit generation being ponzi schemers who worked alongside the jews to destroy your own bloodlines and pass your bags to them. eat shit and die, boomer.
>>
>>526529187
ffs i'm 30 years old dumbass
you're just upset that i'm calling out your economic illiteracy
>>
>>526527186
Look at the size of that nose and that sloping forehead.
>>
>>526528648
before, during and after the great depression the average job paid enough to buy a house in cash in about 4 years
after the 60's things started going downhill
old people are all absolute psychopaths who have cannibalized and gaslight their youth for fun
>>
>>526527186
>Boomers made $85 hr minimum wage as teenagers
Holy fuck I hate these assholes.
>>
>>526528603
Don’t forget the type of labor the modern workplace demands from men plus overtime with no hope for promotion. And taxes stolen from those minuscule wages is absolutely repulsive. This country is dogshit.
>>
>>526529941
>This country
And just think- it's several times worse in most other countries!
>>
>>526528194
We need an infographic and a living relic of the past for that one, sheeeeeesh

>>526527186
That's 95 bucks today, bucko
