If I understand your question correctly, when dealing with inflation, a dollar earned today is worth more than a dollar earned at any time in the future. This has to do with the concept of the present value of money. Because inflation devalues the dollar over time, a dollar earned today is worth more than say, a dollar earned five years from now.
there are two reasons. 1. A dollar today can earn interest so you will have more than a dollar in the future. 2. Inflation will reduce the purchasing power a dollar over time, so it's better to get the dollar today and spend it today because it won't buy as much stuff tomorrow.
It simply means that a dollar today is worth more than a dollar a year from now, since you can bank the dollar and earn a year's interest.

Euros are more then US dollar
Because the dollar can be invested today and earn interest

If a dollar is worth 3 Swiss francs today and 10 Swiss francs tomorrow, than the dollar is appreciating (that is, increasing in value - it is worth more Swiss francs than before) and the Swiss franc is depreciating (that is, reducing in value - it used to be worth 1/3 of a dollar, and now it is only worth 1/10 of a dollar).

Net Present Value. This is the value of an investment in today's dollars. The theory behind this is that a dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow because of the interest that can be earned.

The concept that a dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow is rooted in the principle of time value of money. While the origin of the specific phrase is not definitively attributed to one individual, it is a fundamental concept in finance and economics often associated with the work of economists and scholars like Irving Fisher and John Maynard Keynes.
