324: Are We Running Out of Food?

One of the consequences of inflation is increasing wealth disparity. Think about it for a moment. CPI indices only measure a basket of goods and services. But you and I know as investors that inflation helps us out with our investment portfolios as well. Asset inflation is a real thing. If you don't have the money to invest, you only get the downside of inflation. Prices for everyday stuff go up and it becomes harder and harder to get by. How bad can it get? Well we already have food insecurity in our own country…the richest most powerful country in the world. And there are pressures on food supplies globally now with draughts and the war in Ukraine, also known as the breadbasket of Europe. So are we heading to a worldwide food shortage? And if we are, what are the consequences to those at the top of the food chain? Maybe we don't go hungry but hunger is a big driver of social unrest globally. The world is already a highly volatile place. My guest on Wealth Formula Podcast this week studies the food supply and sheds light on the true extent of the problem. Make sure to tune in!
