In this episode, Lloyd breaks down what inflation really is, not the textbook version, but the real-world version that’s making your chicken schnitty cost fifty bucks and your favourite ice cream double in price. He unpacks how government spending, low interest rates, and endless money printing have made our dollars worth less, while explaining why wages haven’t kept up and how that’s quietly making us all poorer. You’ll also hear his take on gold, Bitcoin, and what actually works when it comes to hedging against inflation (hint: it’s not crypto hype). Packed with straight talk, relatable examples, and a few laughs, this one will make you see inflation, and your money — in a whole new way.
