Debasing your currency sometimes works in the short term, it has never worked in the long term and does not even usually work in the medium term. Lots of politicians like to do it because it is an easy way.

The first loss is the best loss.

Do not buy the hype from Wall St. and the press that stocks always go up. There are long periods when stocks do nothing and other investments are better.
president active-management half
Get inside information from the president and you will probably lose half of your money. If you get it from the chairman of the board, you will lose all of it.
