    For the answer to the question above, The equation you want to use for determining real rates is ... nominal rate minus inflation=real rate.

    '71 was - 3%

    '72 was - 3%

    '73 was -.5%

    '74 is - 1%

    '75 was 0%

    So 1975 is the only year their assets didn't erode from inflation! I guess they should have bought equities/stocks!
