💀 The Great Gold Grab of 1933
When Roosevelt pulled the 1933 gold confiscation, here’s what really went down:
Citizens: forced to hand in gold at $20.67/oz.
Government/Fed: instantly revalued gold to $35/oz.
Overnight, they booked a 69% paper profit on every ounce, while the public lost the upside forever.

Why it mattered
1. They kept the compounding engine.
Families, banks, and insiders still had access to gold through exemptions, overseas vaults, and private channels.
2. Everyone else got stuck with dollars.
Dollars bleed value at 2–3% per year. Gold compounds at ~7%. That’s the difference between building dynasties and watching savings rot.
3. The dynastic effect.
A simple spread — 7% gold vs 3% inflation — means a 3% advantage that compounds for centuries. On $100K, that’s like pulling ~$12K a year forever without touching the principal.

The Result
It wasn’t just a one-off heist. It was a system reset that locked elites onto the real compounding vehicle (gold) while the public was stuck holding melting ice cubes (cash).
The chart says it all:
Start: $100,000
After 100 years
Gold (7%): $86.8 million
Cash (-3% real): $4,755

🔥 They didn’t just steal the gold — they stole the engine of compounding wealth and left everyone else with the illusion of money.
