In this episode of 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', comedian David Boyle takes you on a wild ride through the labyrinth of property prices, gold, and inflation. Boyle, who is known for his candid humour, shares his unique perspective on how real wealth might not be what it seems. He's been crunching numbers with Grok, Twitter's AI, and has unearthed some startling revelations about the Australian housing market when measured in ounces of gold rather than dollars.
Boyle's insights reveal that while house prices have skyrocketed in nominal terms, the true value when adjusted for inflation and measured against gold has decreased. It's a fascinating exploration of how our perceived wealth can be deceiving. Alongside his musings on the construction industry and personal job dissatisfaction, Boyle throws in a dash of wit, making complex financial concepts accessible and entertaining.
He also touches on the manipulation of gold prices through ETFs and the impact of inflation on salaries over time. Boyle's narrative is peppered with personal anecdotes, offering a glimpse into his life post-alcohol and his thoughts on the future of wealth protection. Whether you're interested in economics or just enjoy a good laugh, this episode promises to deliver both. So, are you ready to rethink your investment strategies and question the value of your assets?
