The question isn't what this does to the dollars sitting in your bank account (spoiler: they're worth less).
The question is what does this mean for your goals?
The dream house.
Time freedom.
Family security across a generation.
If you want the best life has to offer, conventional saving will never get you there.
The cost of food is up
The cost of services is up
The cost of a car is significantly up
Taxes are up, and
The dollar is weak
This is why gold is breaking records. And showing no signs of slowing down.
Asset prices are going to keep moving up because a weak dollar pulls in foreign capital while wealthy US buyers keep spending.
That’s why alternative assets like gold, cars, watches, art, and handbags are breaking records.
The signals are everywhere.
Gold Rolex up ~17% since mid-2025.
Birkin bags up double digits in 2025
Collector cars are clearing previous ceilings.
Each of these alt assets is out-performing traditional markets and showing no signs of stopping.
The dollars in your bank account may help you feel 'safe'. It's an illusion.
The solution is one trade: out of dollars, into assets.
Gold breaking $5,000/oz this morning is the canary in the coal mine.
