Extra hard to take him seriously when he thinks inflation is a strange, novel concept he needs to introduce to his readers.

> Yep you read that right. Holding USD means the cash will be “worth” less next year. This is because of a 3% inflation rate.

If it used to take you 8.5 minutes to pick 2 apples and now it takes 10 then yeah, 1/6 < 1/7
Honest typo. Doesn't change the point.
