Just curious and thinking out loud?
Sell all your gold and say you have $100,000 fiat US dollars!!
Put it in the bank or under the mattress!!
Then the $USD gets devalued, say by 75%, and overnight you take the hit and have $25,000 purchasing power left.
Or
Keep your gold.
And you have 100 oz gold that was selling for $1000 oz before devaluation of the $USD.
After devaluation it is still 100 oz selling for $4000 oz X 100 oz = $400,000 and maintained your original purchasing power.
I’m not the brightest bulb in the house, so,What am I figuring wrong here?? Anything?? Silverngold
