Excerpt from Why It Costs You More to Live
Time was, not many years ago, when the varying price level was regarded by the average man as a matter governed largely, if not entirely, by cr0ps, wars, and the party in power, a thing which automatically righted itself about once every so often.
But this old-time faith has found a stubborn problem for a decade past in the fact that despite tremendous crop yields, despite prevailing peace throughout the world, despite a hundred and one fac tors that should tend to carry prices in general to a lower level, they actually continue to go higher and higher.
Obviously, when such a condition pre vails, it must arise from a far-reaching basic cause. And there is only one cause which satisfactorily and completely ex plains this condition - the increasing supply of gold.
It would be futile, of course, to enter here into a discussion of the reasons which justify this conclusion. Volumes have been written upon this one text alone.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book suggests that the increasing global cost of living is a result of the growing supply of gold. The author, a leading economist, examines the complex causes of a higher price level and what this means for invested money. While the study of gold and its effect on investments may seem niche, the author presents a clear understanding of basic cause and effect in an accessible way for the average reader. The text discusses how the value of the gold standard unit has depreciated in value over 15 years and what this means to those whose investments yield a fixed rate of income. It provides a framework for understanding why it costs you more to live and the significance of this to the investor. An essential read for anyone looking to grow their investments in an increasingly expensive world.
