You Versus Pandemic Inflation (What to Consider)

If we look at housing prices since 2019, some areas have gone up 50% due to the cost of materials and labor.

So that $200,000 brand new home now costs $300,000. This put these people 10yrs behind in savings for higher than the official number they give.

Whatever the number you use, 5% inflation or 10% inflation, doesn't reflect the true cost of inflation to some people.

Some Investments That Can Protect Against Inflation
1. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS)
2. Real Estate
3. Stocks
4. Commodities

Each investment has its own risks.

Some investments offer better cash flow than others.

EVERYONE WILL LAUGH AT YOU WHEN YOU BUY JUST AFTER A MARKET CRASH!  Lol.


I-Bonds are paying around 7% right now as well.  Safe, federal (US) investment.
