That's why it's best to make use of your money than let it sleep in the bank. I don't mean to just spend it on whatever comes to mind. I mean, make it productive. It isn't easy, of course. It takes a lot of research, analysis, effort, time, discipline, and so on. But that's what it takes if you want your money to bear fruits.

However, that doesn't mean we totally avoid keeping money in the banks. We must always have to set aside a certain amount for emergencies and other unforeseen expenses. This amount we surrender, in a way, to slow death by inflation.

Like I said holding

126k cash from oct 6

To today means you can buy over 1.75 btc today vs only 1 btc last Oct 6 2025.

So holding cash short-term can be fine.

Long term holding of cash pretty much  always loses

One area that is less talked about is how saving money in the bank can slowly reduce its value over time.
This is how persons lose money, not because it is stolen, when it is left in the bank, prices are rising rapidly, much more than the interest rates.

I think this has been discussed and is being talked about more frequently these days, as there are a lot of finance and investments social media creators who talk a lot about these. I know it already reached to many people, but not everyone has realized and understands it.
What people really don't realize is that they think their money is safer in the banks because it's unlikely to get stolen. However, people did not notice that the purchasing power of their money had gradually depleted. Those interest rates the banks are offering can't even keep up with the rapid inflation.
So, yeah, keeping your savings through purchasing commodities is always the best option to protect your money from losing its purchasing power. If you have high risk appetite, invest it in crypto or Btc. Banks have been "legally" stealing from us in broad daylight, lol.

the mindset back then was that we have to save everything as much as possible but it has shifted now due to inflation. instead of just saving up, investments have become very attractive to people. because the money isn’t stagnant or losing value, it’s actually keeping up with inflation as well since it’s gaining value. since there are also many investments options nowadays, people have plenty of choices to choose from.
