It’s just basic economics. It might take a very long time, but if we never change our currency and inflation continues, it will happen.

For example, in 1913 $1 had the same purchasing power that $33 has today. If a similar x33 increase occurs over the next 112 years, $1,809 would have the same purchasing power in 2137 as $33 has today. x33 over another 112 years, you’d get $35,937 in 2249 being the same value as $1 in 1913 or $33 today.

So it could take many many hundreds, or potentially thousands, of years, but it currently is inevitable if current conditions continue.

I respect you for doing the math. But the USD has been in use since 1792, 233 years ago, and has been experiencing constant inflation. 2249 is 224 years away. So this equivalent discussion would have been had in 1801 about the Dollar in 2025. Who’s to say it’s not still in use then?

What…? No his math clearly stated it’s using the modern value dollar as a baseline, so what does the history of the USD have to do with anything?

I know what he meant. He was saying nobody should accumulate a trillion dollars in the current day with current values. I’m not even making an argument in that point, just discussing the far future.
