Millionaire? Are you one? Am I?

I know I will never be a millionair but that's ok as long as my wife and I can maintain our conservative standard of living through retirement. What concerns me more is the Fed messing up and giving us skyrocketing inflation after years of near zero growth on our savings. That could wipe us out and by then a million dollars wouldn't be worth much. It would only be the average price of a home.

Milk could cost a million dollars in the future, given the way their printing dollars. Did I mention I'm a trillionare...in Zimbabwe? I have a 50 Trillion dollar Zimbabwe bill. I think it's worth about $15.00. Let's hope the dollar never is devalued to that point.

I had to laugh, Zimbabwe got rid of their currency(2009).....

They mostly use the S.A. Rand which is 9 for 1 USD!

Cool, that makes it a collector's item. It might actually gain in value someday.
