Yes, TG will be more expensive for sure. But....have to say that the jobs number looked pretty good today, and the last two months were revised upwards. I really do think a lot more people are entering the workforce as savings and/or some of the pandemic safety net programs end. We're definitely not seeing any signs of stagflation with those numbers. So...hopefully we'll see some improvement on the inflation front next year.
And while I know we're all feeling it a bit as far as inflation goes, I'm sure a lot of your are noticing that our 401k/retirement investments are looking pretty sweet....for us, the best ever. I'm expecting a correction as some point...but hoping it won't be too bad.
My portfolio grew more than I make each year. It's been a good year. But everything has gotten so expensive. There is no way I'm going to get a salary increase that keeps up with 4% inflation.
I've read that inflation will remain around 4%.
