  1. That means that your money is worth 5.8% less than it did last year.

    And last year your money was worth 10% less than the year before.

    So today your money is worth 15.8% less than it was 2 years ago.

    The government lockdowns and borrowing money sure have done a lot of damage.

  2. inflation does not stop from rising , but the percentage of increase in prices slows down. Hence, nothing will be back to the old price. Everyhing will increae but at a slower pace. So we better look for new jobs.

  3. Inflation rates include housing and mortgage costs I believe. Skews it really, should really just include the essentials that everyone buys.
