Inflation hit 9% in 2022 and is now around 3.5%, so why does everything still feel so f*cking expensive?
This covers Paul Volcker, the Federal Reserve, New Zealand's 2% inflation target, Coca-Cola, Wingstop, PepsiCo, Walmart, Klarna, and the three companies behind most of the world's RAM. Inflation is down but groceries, rent, insurance, credit card debt, and everyday spending keep going up.
This is the story behind the prices you're actually paying, in a way thats actually easy to understand.
