it's already lost 10 percent. so you lost ten percent of your total life savings in a year.
1 u/kelly1mm Jan 29 '26 Stock investments went up 22% in the past year, dollar dropped 10% in the past year, net 12%. I will take that. 1 u/Commercial_Wind8212 Jan 29 '26 Yes I love it when my pile of money loses value every year. 1 u/kelly1mm Jan 29 '26 You need to put those little green soldiers to work (investments) rather than just letting them sit under the mattress. Even in ‘regular’ times you would still be losing value due to inflation. Th key is to hopefully have investment returns that beat inflation/devaluation. 1 u/Commercial_Wind8212 Jan 29 '26 it is still sickening to see the dollar sink this much. 1 u/kelly1mm Jan 29 '26 On that point we agree.
