Do any miscers still think government-issued currency is valuable?

In a post Bretton-woods world

Brb no gold standard
Brb issue dollars today backed by debt sold into overseas markets
Brb banks set target interest rates based on vague and changeable objectives and forecasts of things that may happen in the future
Brb political leaders fire up the printing presses to achieve their own political objectives
Brb wage price stickiness
Brb zoomers don’t even understand what a union is or why they’re important
Brb hyperinflation making your wage worthless
Brb can’t even get a truthful report on the actual rate of inflation

Most westerners have enjoyed a stable currency and banking system aside from the unpleasantness in 2008

Probably haven’t lived through a currency devaluation like in the 90s or when the trade sanctions were imposed last year

Does anyone still hold onto cash for anything other than facilitating day-to-day transactions?

ANY currency only has the worth that people give to it. We could all decide to use leafs as currency and it could work just as fine as paper money.

LOL at Jewified cucks thinking that money needs to be tied to gold or oil or whatever BS they teach you clowns.

Currency is an EXCHANGE for work/goods/services. The currency shouldn't have any value apart from the work it is being exchanged for. In our jewish utopia money is made into something more than that, which is the source of our problems.

Ofcourse the people who don't provide any work/goods/services needed to find a way to make money off of the back of people who do via taxes/interests/fines/laywer fees

Yes but when the currency is stable you don’t feel nervous about holding currency. Sure there is some known, stable rate of inflation but it won’t change your behaviour day to day.

But when the currency is being deliberately devalued it almost feels like when you get a lump of cash you’re in a rush to dump it into some kind of real asset rather than see it’s value disappear before your eyes.

Or maybe that’s just me.

What qualifies someone as wealthy

Bearing in mind, the majority of miscers think fiat currency is essentially worthless

So definitions based on dollars are invalid

Id rather have land and property. I've got 2 houses and will look to buy another down the road. I really don't trust the feds and Federal reserve. Go to any grocery and compare prices from even a year ago. Bidens team claiming 7% inflation is complete bs. A lot of basic groceries have increased by 100% percent or more. Literally double the cost. Fuk the feds

Every fiat currency ever tried has ended in hyperinflation. Printing a 12 cent cotton rag and forcing someone to give you $100 worth of chit for it just becomes too sweet of a deal, at least in the short term.

you need $$$

thus fiat is extremely valuable regardless of inflation

It’s “useful” as a unit of exchange

Thevaluable thing in this example is the land

Are you comfortable holding large portions of your wealth in fiat?
