>>> Now worth $8M.

That is the price. Worth and value are different than price.

If that $8M now buys about the same amount of blueberries or house as $3M in 2007, then it kept pace. Except for paying the capital gains on $5M.

If you're asking about inflation, it is usually measured as an increase in prices.
