Iβm worn out hearing people moan, βOur grandparents could buy a house on one paycheck, but now we canβt even afford rent on two!β
Yeah, maybe because Grandma wasnβt dropping half her income on $14 iced lattes and avocado toast shaped like art projects. Back then, ifβ¦ https://t.co/h05evTiO6I pic.twitter.com/X9IebvBHA7

Few generations ago, it was about survival. No birth control, limited education, few rich middle class, no credit cards, etc. A very different America. We’re too fat, dumb and comfortable now. IMO
As far as I and my tribe are concerned, there is no room for lattes, dinners out, or other baubles. Yes, we are in debt like a lot of other citizens. But our debts are the result of not only a mortgage and confiscatory taxes AT ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT(!), but from leveraging purchases of the needful things which all preppers have stocked up on. And our debts are managed successfully every month.
With the way the fatally diseased Amerikan Weimar Economy is staggering along, there will come a time when all or most all loan/credit card debt will be wiped out due to a massive collapse. And true wealth will be measured in tangibles and the means of survival. Keep prepping. Bleib ubrig.
They had real, gold , money. Maybe that was a factor…
Actually, a VERY CRITICAL FACTOR.
In the early 60’s minimum wage was $1.25 or 5 silver quarters. Today the silver in those quarters is worth $52.43. If that was now the minimum wage families wouldn’t be struggling. That is how much value has been robbed from the American people via inflation. Sound money is the only way to go and if we have to burn down DC and the Fed and hang some people to get it, so be it.
Someone beat me too it. I consider myself to have a good job, that i am thankful for. We can afford a house and on my salary alone, that said when i sit down and do the math, turns out i dont quite make what was minimum wage in the early 60s with their real money.
High inflation is specifically imposed to force people to spend today rather than save for tomorrow. Sound money encourages people to save for tomorrow rather than spend today. Back before 1934, US currency was backed by gold/silver. Today it is ONLY backed by the willingness of the government to STEAL from the productive to pay their debt obligations. THAT makes all the difference in the world. Yes, one must ALWAYS try to live BELOW one’s means, but when government and the criminal banking system CREATE DISINCENTIVES for saving and making good decisions, it is not always appropriate to JUST BLAME the mistake makers.
