@warandpeas Kinda my reality in the early '90s in Brazil: I was a millionaire for a few weeks or months, before a new cut of 000 and a new change of currency name. Or the disguised dollarization in early 1994.

Converting that bank balance from that currency to the US$ exchange of that month, it was around US$3,500 from that time (I don't know the USA inflation of the last decades).
