Friends and families are going to have to live together and spread the rent or mortgages out just to live a halfway decent life. That's what some people did back in the depression. That's why couples started sleeping sharing one bed . They couldn't afford a second bed.they used to sleep in separate beds. True story.

[@gypsywoman9140]

I used to know an older couple that slept in separate rooms. I found it strange as a teenager. As an adult, I got involved with a guy who made so much noise in his sleep that he could have scared away an entire jungle full of creatures. Snoring, snorting, farting, lips snacking in my ear....then all the twitching and leg kicking. I slept on the couch when he was over, suddenly understanding that older couple. Loved him when he was awake. Wanted to smother him while he slept...especially that lip smacking in my ear like he was struggling to chew a peanut butter sandwich.

Government overspending, borrowing, and money-printing + covid lockdowns (supply-demand imbalances) + inefficient energy and housing policies + mass immigration + supply shocks (e.g. Ukraine war effects) are the main reasons for the inflation.

I know it's hard for people to change their way of living but in order to somewhat make it you have to change. Stop shopping at expensive stores like Harris Teeter and Whole Foods. You have to stop getting your nails done and learn how to do them yourself. Stop buying expensive coffee and eating out and make your food and drinks at home. Shopping at Dollar General is expensive for things like cleaning and hair supplies. You have to shop around. I've been living on a tight budget and lived a frugal life style my entire adult life. Sometimes you have to sacrifice things and concentrate on paying your bills and having food in your home. In reality that's all we need. Things will not improve, things will get worse. So practice sacrificing now because soon the things that we love will not be available. Businesses will close down once more people will no longer be able to afford their services.

[@jeanieolahful]

What if you’re doing all of that and your apartment gets sold and the new owner doubles the rent? Or your partner leaves? Or you have a medical crisis? Or someone uninsured totals your car?

To change: we have to tell our leaders to acknowledge climate change and give us the choice to not own a stupid car! Let the government stop subsidizing fossil fuels and instead subsidize childcare and education.

[@eyesofthecervino3366]

I would amend that by saying, instead of having a mindset of sacrificing, have a mindset of seeking out better, more affordable options. You don't have to spend lots of money to have a good time, or to have cool hobbies -- and if your hobbies are things that help you produce your own stuff, then all the better. A gardener can't be scalped by the price of tomatoes and shallots, a seamstress won't be hurt by the price of clothing. Of course it's a bad situation, and self-sufficiency is no substitute for being paid a fair livable wage, but I can't help but think things are only going to get worse, and as much as possible we need to find ways, not only to survive, but to thrive, and to help those around us do the same. Try gardening, or sewing, or baking, or raising backyard chickens, or growing mushrooms. Don't just accept a mindset of sacrifice, of only having a few, cheap things.

Most everything people are saying now is stuff my closest friends and I have been dealing with our whole lives. People are only now making a fuss about it now because the middle-class is feeling it, too. Back in 2018 my mom and I both witnessed the rents for basic 2 bedroom apartments in her area jump from $1200/mth to $14-1600/mth...even for basement apartments with bs rules "No smokers. No smoking on the property." If I'm paying your mortgage, I should be allowed to smoke outside by my door. TL;DR This gouging and greed has been going on a long time.

@@mamadoom9724 A couple of tips for you - adding a 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds before blending will improve the creaminess of the oat milk if you've been accustomed to half and half or coffee mate creamer. Cashews also work beautifully for this, but they are expensive. The pulp that is leftover after you squeeze the milk through the nut milk bag lends a lovely flavor to homemade bread, and it reduces the amount of flour you have to add to it as well. I make about a quart worth of oat milk at a time because it doesn't keep long being totally natural (put it into something with a tight lid that you can shake because it separates in the fridge) it won't keep as long as the stuff with all the preservatives in it. I keep the pulp from each time in a lidded container in the fridge until I need to make bread again the following week - it usually adds up to a cup and a half or 2 of flour "substitute". Nothing weird about it - you can find lots of bread with oats and sunflower seeds in the bakery aisle at the store, usually around the $6 per loaf mark.

Everyone in the comments talking about people living above their means. It’s about the fact that wages should be rising with increased productivity and inflation. Regardless of how someone spends the money they get, we all need to be getting more money.

[@jdrollins6485]

They won't, though. If they raised prices to keep up with inflation, then that would cause an inflationary spiral. The answer is to outlaw fiat currency, move to a capitalist system (which we don't have now, actually), and teach kids the difference between earning a living wage and creating wealth.

If it's just regular shampoo, get it wherever the best price is. Maybe the Dollar Tree. Shampoo, body wash and liquid soap are about the same chemical formula.

Or add it to water, and isopropyl alcohol ( or vinegar) to make a spray-on surface cleaner.

The last guy in the blue shirt is ignorant. When inflation is high and trending higher, it's best to own THINGS rather than cash, whetther that thing is a tangible asset like food or tools or a share of a company. That "money in 401ks and IRAs" isn't sitting in cash or CDs for the most part. It's in mutual funds made of STOCKS which are shares of companies, which increase in value when the company does well!
