I'm glad that you're explaining it to them, and I've run into a lot of people who don't understand it, which is a tad problematic...lol! πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

Very true my friend......πŸ™„
I've tried to explain it to our neighbor that hikes with us, she will tell you $100 bill is still $100 bill........
I've tried numerous times to tell her that it's not worth the same as it was years ago, but she doesn't quite understand!!

That blows my brain, my friend! How do people not understand that, say that $100 50 years ago would have bought out the whole bakery, whereas now you're lucky if you get a dozen loaves, and usually of far poorer quality?!? πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

I don't really understand it myself, it seems like simple logicπŸ€”πŸ™„
I can tell people that when I got out of high school, a can of Campbell's tomato soup was nine cents, and then they just smile and give me that blank look......

That might be the issue, since logic is not strong with many people I've noticed...lol!

LOLOL!!! Some people may never understand it would seem, lordy! 😁 πŸ™ πŸ’š ✨ πŸ€™

I believe that most people are so busy……..πŸ˜…
By the time they realize, if they realize, how the bankers are playing them they’re usually much older!πŸ™„

That's true, and that constant busyness and financial lack is intentionally engineered, so people don't have time to look any deeper than what they already know, which means most never leave the financial hamster wheel. I'd change the word 'bankers' to 'banksters', as that's a lot closer to what they actually are. 😁 πŸ™ πŸ’š ✨ πŸ€™
