Hyperinflation is usually a relatively short term event. The plan is to come out the other side in decent shape. Then use assets to acquire bargains. What assets will hold value that is the question?
Historically the answer would be gold/silver, real money
The hyperinflation from 73 into the 1980s wasn’t exactly a short term event and it took someone like Paul Voelker to do what had to be done to bring it to heel.
You confuse terms. We did not experience hyperinflation. Annual inflation rate for the 1970s was 6.8%.
An example of hyperinflation is Zimbabwe in Nov 2008 when they experienced 100% inflation per DAY!
Yugoslavia in January 1994 when it was 64% per DAY.
Germany in Sept 1923 was 23% per DAY
Venezuela had 65% annual inflation in 2014.
The US has. not seen hyperinflation since the end of the Revoltionary war, or perhaps the post Civil War firmer confederate states
