Like many of us, we seek for financial security and ultimately financial freedom. This blog is intended to act as a journal of investment as I journey towards that dream. At the same time, I hope that the articles written here would also benefit many others who share the same vision as me.

 

One of the most common term used when it comes to financial planning, investment or financial freedom is "Inflation Rate". While many of us do not understand how the inflation rate is obtained, we tend to read or hear the following:

 

  1. For investors, we must make sure that our % investment return per year must be higher then inflation rate.
  2. For consumers, our money is getting "smaller" every year due to inflation, hence our purchasing power becomes weaker every year.
  3. For personal financial planning, inflation is taken into consideration when it comes to ensuring that the money we save/invest grows faster then the inflation rate.
  4. For salary earners, we complain about our salary increment is lower then inflation rate. 

 

While we speak as if we know inflation like the back of your hands (but only know "tiga suku" about it), I intend to share my own findings about inflation in today's post.
