In Spain we were doing well with the peseta, when we accepted the euro everything started to go wrong, I remember the change from living well and comfortably to simply making ends meet, our purchasing power was reduced considerably with the change, also In the long term I don't see any improvement on the horizon, even worst when CBDCs arrive, I wonder who is behind all this shit?
