Inflation is just another tax. You don't vote on it. You just pay it 😱
Governments inflate the money supply. Prices rise. Your savings buy less.
📊 The OECD now projects inflation across developed countries will stay elevated well into 2026. Even if it "cools" in relative terms, it's still compounding losses year after year.
You might not notice it month to month, but over time the damage adds up. Here's a real-world example:
🤔 Imagine you saved 41,000,000 Colombian pesos, about $10,000 today.
You held it in cash for a decade as your emergency fund while annual inflation averaged 4.5%.
🤔 After 10 years your money retains only about 63.1% of its purchasing power.
That's over 15 million pesos gone while you didn’t spend a single peso...
