How Your Raise Is Finally Beating the Cost of Home Repairs

from Wages and Prices with Fexingo: Cost of Living, Pay Raises, and Workers' Purchasing Power · host Fexingo

In this episode of Wages and Prices, Lucas and Luna examine why home repair costs are finally growing more slowly than paychecks. With hourly earnings up to $37.60 and the CPI down to 332.6, they dig into the shift in labor and materials costs that's making contractors more negotiable. They also unpack the surprising math behind the recent July jobs report and what it means for your buying power. #HomeRepairs #WagesAndPrices #Economics #CostOfLiving #Inflation #LaborMarket #Construction #DIY #PayRaises #CPI #JobsReport #PurchasingPower #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #RealEstate #HomeMaintenance #SkilledTrades #SupplyChain Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
