“The question is, what’s the real bench mark for an investor. I don’t think it’s the CPI, the CPI is a very synthetic metric which is cherry-picked by a bunch of government paid economists in order to the lowest possible measurement of inflation. If things get too expensive, they throw it out of the CPI. “

He then goes onto discussing that a more realistic and better metric to set a benchmark is the M2 money supply. Anything that matches that rate , isn’t making money they are just keeping their moneys values. Anything that falls short , it’s just an illusion with numeric values that you’re making a profit .
The last 4 years the money supply has increased by at least 40%. If you held $100,000 in 2020. It can only buy you $60,000 worth of ‘stuff’ in todays economy. BIG WAKE UP!
