Have you been feeling the inflation lately? After increasing early in the pandemic and reaching a peak in June 2022, inflation steadily declined through June of 2023 — and has more or less leveled out since then. When January’s inflation numbers were released last week, they showed a rate higher than expected. As we continue to deal with it, Jason Speciner, CFP®, EA, and Regina Neenan, CFP®, are here to talk about increasing costs. Hear why inflation is a regular part of a growing economy — and how you can work around its biggest impacts no matter your generation.
