RE: The Insidious Wage Deflation

in LeoFinance3 years ago

That is insane, 15 years of wage stagflation no one will be able to save and you'll have more working poor and with automation, it's even worse, more jobs get taken away. I did a calculation, my moms, first job with no experience if I price it in gold is double my salary when I had 5 years experience and thats what like a 30 year span

Wow. It certainly is becoming unaffordable. The cost of living from the 80s and early 90s is a distant dream.

Absolutely, people underestimate the power of compounding gains and interest and when you can move capital you move that power too. Since most people deal with absolute numbers they miss out on his sinister wealth transfer
