No Brenda. Sorry, should have stated it differently. The money has
become so worthless, a $20 dollar bill will NO LONGER buy $20 dollars of
gold ... it takes ~$1,400 of the worthless bill to do so ... but, the
$20 bucks of gold will still buy what it did in 1849 ... the dollars
won't ... of course ...
