The History of Inflation and HyperInflation
How Governments and People Battled the Last 10 Great InflationsBy Kendrick Fernandez
Length3h 7m
About this audiobook
There have been dozens of recorded hyperinflations in modern history. The most devastating hyperinflation happened just after World War II in one of the Axis powers when prices surged by 4.19 quintillion percent. One quintillion is one followed by 29 zeros. Prices doubled every few hours. The most recent hyperinflation episode has been happening in Venezuela since 2016. America has never had hyperinflation, but they came close twice. This book looks at ten prominent hyperinflations across history. We look at what led to the hyperinflation, the first troubling signs, and government malpractices.
