Ep 31: Inflation Unmasked: The Hidden Impact on Your Buying Power

In this episode of Money Moves - A Black Swan Money Podcast, hosts Jon Cleaver and Wendy Lee delve into the complex world of inflation. They challenge the official inflation numbers and discuss how, despite a reported slowdown, the rising prices have significantly eroded people's buying power. Citing examples such as a 13.5% price increase from 2020 to 2022 and a 20% overall loss in buying power since 2020, they emphasize that a drop in inflation doesn't necessarily mean your dollars are buying more. The hosts also explore the causes of inflation, its impact on consumers, and offer strategies to combat its effects.
