As inflation increases, your savings (if you are lucky enough to have savings), lose value.

Over time, they lose A LOT of value.

If you started saving $100/month today, with the best available interest rate of 0.05%:

In 30 years you would have saved $84,019.

When adjusted for the FED's mandated 2% inflation:

In 30 years your savings would have an effective purchasing power of just $46,384.

Adjusting for today's inflation of 3.5%:

Your $84,019 worth of savings would have the purchasing power of just $11,037 in 30 years!

In effect this means that approximately six out of seven hours of your work have been stolen = Time Theft.
