N.B. Inflation is where currency becomes worthless due to the amount of currency in an economy vastly outnumbering what the economy is actually worth.

Take this analogy for example...

You live in a small community, and the economy constitutes a single apple. The only dollar is owned by you, therefore the apple is worth one dollar.

However, if you printed, say, five more dollars, the apple would then be worth six dollars.

Continuing with this example, if you printed an infinite amount of money, the apple would be worth infinity, making a single dollar, or any other amount, worthless.
