In this episode, I talk to the guys behind the website WTFHappenedIn1971.com, where we discuss exactly that, w-t-f happened in 1971?  They provide interesting insights into why the current erosion of fiat currencies started over 100 years ago, and was accelerated in 1971 by going off the gold standard, as well as what all has gotten worse statistically since going off the gold standard, and why Bitcoin might be the thing to save it.
