sylvie, I buy lot's of stuff on internet. Bought a 1TB ssd for $84 and that is 60 or more bucks cheaper than a year ago. when CT went to must have 10% green energy several years back electric energy prices went up 40% under obamination. No change over the last couple of years. Gas has been cheaper and my natural gas has been 20% cheaper under the Winner. Water bill is same. I buy just about 100% of everything on a credit card. Have several with various cash back. I pay the bills and have seen little change.
2020_Q1-Jan-Mar
                   5%  
Discover 5% Grocery Walgreens CVS
Freedom Gas Stations Internet, Cable & Phone Services Select Streaming Services
BJ DEC 2020 end of 0% Ink 5% Utilities, office stores 2% Gas Resturants.
AARP 3% restaurants, Gas
AMEX 3% Markets 2% Gas

I also have a double cash card for anything.

Now I am a cheap bastard and I plan ahead and buy on sale and buy larger portions.

So on balance I have more net worth now than I had last year. Yes I had 25% stock inflation.

Based on purchase price my stock is paying 10% interest dividends.

Sylvester,
ask your wife how much more she is paying at the grocery story from a year ago??
It's not much different.
Look at Amazon's price in products you regularly buy and tell us how much HIGHER are they from a year ago??
It's not much different.
How about your electric bill?? Or water bill??
LOL, I live in California, home of PG&E and the multi-year water crisis. Those bills are higher not because of inflation, but because the state here can't manage shit.
If they had to actually tell the TRUTH on inflation, they then would have to raise rates.
I'm so glad I have an autocomplete libtard like you to tell me the "truth" about inflation, LOL ...
