XCR1250 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 The first U.S. dollar, as it is known today, was printed in 1914 upon the creation of the Federal Reserve Bank. ... After the war, countries linked their currencies to the dollar, which was linked to gold. The gold standard ended, but the dollar's reserve status remained.

You forgot about the interest it earns in all those years. I didn't collect till age 62 and don't get much from SS compared to what others get..certainly couldn't come close to living on it if that's all I had coming in..I invested much of my cash from the real estate into an income fund which pays a monthly dividend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
