Summary

This quote highlights the impact of the Great Inflation of the 1970s on investor sentiment towards paper assets, particularly bonds. The rapid increase in inflation eroded the value of bonds, creating a situation where people who held these assets witnessed a significant decrease in their worth. As a result, the quote suggests that this experience shattered the trust individuals had in paper assets, as their previously stable and reliable nature was found to be vulnerable to inflationary pressures.
