I don't understand what you're saying. If you put money under a mattress, doesn't it stay the same in worth? If I put a $20 bill under the mattress 40 years ago

I don't understand what you're saying. If you put money under a mattress, doesn't it stay the same in worth? If I put a $20 bill under the mattress 40 years ago, it's still a $20 bill, worth exactly $20 today. What did you mean?
