Inflation is eating Average People Alive and it is going to get Worse - How to Protect yourself

Inflation occurs when there is a sustained increase in the general price level. Traditionally high inflation rates are considered to be damaging to an economy.

Some economists even argue we should target a higher inflation rate during periods of economic stagnation.
