What was said around it

look for Alternatives that hold their value over time that's what I think the smart investors see I think that's a really interesting Theory now the real big takeaway is that on a personal level cash is probably going to lose purchasing power in this scenario investors who sit on too much cash while the dollar weakens could see their Sav eroded possibly by inflation but definitely by asset values going higher if this Theory plays out we're looking at a future where the financial system changes in a really big way the us could be heading toward a long-term period of lower interest rates and a weaker dollar high growth similar to what happened after the original Plaza Accord and if that happens the biggest winners will be those who hold assets but anyone who relies on things like fix income savings or an income that doesn't keep up with inflation will unfortunately be left behind but all this is of course allegedly for entertainment purposes only if you found this breakdown helpful smash the like button subscribe if you haven't already I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day I'd love to see you back next week I'll see you soon bye-bye
