    Imagine if your local currency kept going up in value, would you honestly decide to start holding a currency that was going down in value so that you wouldn’t feel dumb for spending it? That is exactly what you are advocating for. You somehow think you can escape feeling dumb by intentionally using a currency that creates you less value. Good luck not hating yourself when you realize that you are doing exactly what you think is dumb.

      And who’s going to buy anything for this local currency if it starts appreciating? It’ll be the death of economy.

        Lots of people spend currencies that go up in value. Believe it or not, people sometimes want stuff now instead of the possibility of stuff later.
