My guess would be that most people will go back to being completely unfamiliar with different investment vehicles. I think that only happened because inflation made saving money a losing strategy, but without inflation people will mostly just save money.

So you think they will lose the skills to pick a winning stock because they will no longer need to?

I’m sure that’s mostly because technology made it easier, but it might not be a complete coincidence that this is happening while we’re experiencing historic inflation.

Yep, tech made it much easier and from what I have seen people are not good at picking winners. Like most things a few are good and they get the attention. The rest are likely as bad as I am. At least that's how it is in my circle.
