Episode notes
In this 2Sats refresh, I revisit one of my most-shared videos - What Does $6 Trillion Mean?
It’s a quick but powerful look at what happens when we normalize creating money out of thin air. Six trillion dollars - it sounds abstract, but when you translate it into the real human lives and sacrifices it represents, the scale of the damage becomes personal.
Through a simple analogy, I break down how fiat distortions erase value, manipulate incentives, and steal the weight of our decisions.
