This is great, thanks for putting it into perspective. What was the math used to get to that debased number?

Did you receive a $1,200 stimulus check back in April 2020? You could have bought 0.13909818 #Bitcoin with that check back then. Today 0.13909818 Bitcoin is worth $9,737. The $1,200 from back then has the value of $950 today. Maybe you should get off zero and buy Bitcoin. image

I used an inflation calculator to find the inflation rate from 2020. It said that if you bought something in 2020 for $1,200 it would cost $1,453.79 in 2024, which is a 21.1% increase. So if you multiply $1,200 by 78.9% you get $946.80. Then I just rounded to $950. There are many inflation calculators out there. Some give slightly different numbers. Here's the one I used.
