Why Your Salary Is Not Keeping Pace With Inflation
from Inflation and Your Money with Fexingo: Protecting Purchasing Power and Beating Inflation · host Fexingo
Lucas and Luna examine why wage growth is lagging behind rising prices in 2026. Using the latest CPI data — headline CPI at 334, core CPI at 336 — they show that while inflation has moderated, real wages are still falling. They discuss how the Fed's rate pause at 3.63% is affecting labor markets, and why the gap between price increases and pay raises matters for your personal finances. Plus, they offer actionable tips on negotiating raises and investing in skills that appreciate with inflation. #Inflation #WageGrowth #RealWages #CPI #FedRatePause #PurchasingPower #LaborMarket #SalaryNegotiation #PersonalFinance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #FinancePodcast #InflationAndYourMoney #CostOfLiving #CoreCPI #EconomicIndicators #JobMarket2026 #PayRaiseTips Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
