Imagine you got $1,000 in stimulus money five years ago at the start of COVID. You could’ve spent it on a meal for your family at a fast-casual restaurant—or saved it. But what if you had put that money into gold instead? 🤔

In this video, we break down:
💸 How inflation has driven up restaurant prices by 50% in five years
🟡 Why $1,000 in gold (then) would still buy the same meal today
💰 The hidden cost of inflation—and how your savings are losing value
📉 Why the government taxes your inflation hedge, even if you’re just keeping up with rising prices

Gold has historically been a hedge against inflation, but did you know the government still wants a cut when you use it? This is how they tax inflation without you realizing it.
