@Elizabeth Green What one investor considers a "good" ROI may be unacceptable to another. A good return varies by risk tolerance, the more risk you're willing to take, the higher return you'll expect. Conversely, risk-averse; getting a lnvestment manager to help you set suitable strategies to enhance your return more effectively remains a priority

I highly recommend (Genevieve Glen Rogers) an lnvestment manager working under a licensed body of a wealth management firm. You can do a quick internet search with her full name and get in touch with her.

Thanks! this makes the most sense. I'll be delighted to take part in this great experience

Its because of Biden, too

Yep it’s greed less people buying from famous companies like adidas, hot Cheetos, etc because they raise their prices a lot. less money this companies earn, if they keep increasing prices they will go to bankrupt soon

It's obvious

Hang in there !

Just some advice from a single mom. Prior to going to the store, I see what I have in the cabinets and frig and plan meals according to those items. I also look for sale items or store brands only. Saves money. Walmart frozen vegetables, many our under $1. I did away with paper towels and use cloths I can wash. I buy walmart brand cleaners or $1 store cleaning supplies. As for gas, I plan errands same day to save on how many trips I make. I've also lowered my speed limit. I lower my heat when not home and at night while sleeping. Small changes. All the best.

At least, those rich guys will give some of their fortune back to economy. So, our miserable life won’t collapse.

No ur wrong and i work in a manufacturing sector. The primary cause of inflation has been the rapid increase in the money supply by the fed to subsidize the federal govts massive deficit spending. Inflation is always is caused by credit created from thin air. It didnt help to pay people not to work. Wage inequity has been going up since nixon keft Breton woods and the fed started money printing snd deficit spending. Wall street got rich, middle class was destroyed.

I think they take an average. But I still think it is higher. Cooking oil doubled, mushrooms doubled, meats up 30-40%, rice up 25%, etc. I feel so sorry for everyone because times are tough.

Yes

I do think they make much money. The are average earners if I am not mistaken

The Biden Administrations uncontrolled spending has caused this economy. The companies have had to raise their prices because their costs have gone up.

Do you blame them?

there was no reason the landlords shouldn't have been paid by the renters, during the 2020 and 2021 year the people on unemployment were making double than when they were working, and the government allowed these scum sucking renters to not have to pay rent REALLY

So get a real job. Minimum wage jobs are not supposed to be careers. they are entry level, 2nd job, high school, supplemental type jobs.

Every state has a min wage higher than fed. Many are doubled. That's why prices are going up is cause wages did go up

@@imadeplorable3732 yeah for sure. Wendy's here is paying $30k. Like who makes fed min wage?

Minimum wage should be 0.

@@kc2276 I agree. I bet people would make more than now if it was. Cause no minimum means they have to get smarter and more skilled and work harder to prove themself and keep job. Employees would compete harder for raises and good employees would have more leverage to demand higher pay or go elsewhere. Now no one tries cause min wage is a living wage and enough for them to get by. They think they need to be paid more before they work harder. I remember years ago when min wage was $4 an hour McDonald's had people with learning disabilities just walking around inside and out picking up trash, cleaning tables and sweeping. Also had more people. People didn't work too hard. Now half the people. They working harder and faster than landscapers and trash cans over flowing onto parking Lot and floor

Are you that naive to think prices will not continue to increase John Dyer?If you are, your'e only fooling yourself. Prices are not going to be like they were during the 1890-1900's Sear and Roebuck catalog days🤣

What's that limit going to be ?

@@christopherfreeman1340 He's not saying that prices haven't increased. The point is that things will become so expensive, people will stop buying them. For example. If the cost of avocados quadrupled, people would stop or drastically reduce how much they buy, which could eventually lead to employees along that chain getting laid off. Every item has a breaking point where people will do without, for better or worse. People already go without insulin (which is extremely dangerous/fatal) because they can't afford it. You've completely missed the point.

I'm in Texas and am thinking of trying youpon tea. Supposed to have just as much caffeine as coffee. Got plenty of that stuff around here.

Plum, pear and figs are a bit too young yet to produce. Strawberries and blueberries are in. Garlic and onions are doing great. Potatoes go in this weekend. Buying bulk ancient grains for my morning cereal. Hoping the bees do good this year. But, it's an Easter Egg Hunt each day for the eggs. My chickens are free-range.

@@lynnbetts4332 Sounds wonderful, except for the "Easter egg hunt" lol I was never good at that. Truthfully I didn't know there were parts of Texas that were rainy enough to have agriculture. I've always liked Texas but never lived there.

@@happycook6737 Texas is huge. Lots of different planting zones and soils. The Rio Grande Valley in South Texas has a huge citrus industry, being subtropical. Panhandle grows wheat. Central Texas is big cotton and corn. Being on the Gulf, we get hurricanes, and those areas get tons of rain. I think the record is 40" during one hurricane. Plus, we have multiple rivers. My area averages 40-45" of rain per year.

@@lynnbetts4332 I hear you. The daily Easter Egg Hunt can be epic for the free-range birds. We have two coops and keep the nesting areas stocked with weeds, vegetable scraps, and snake traps.

It is always a good time for that.

Small landlords are not a monopoly and they can't price gouge. Expenses include Real Estate taxes, which may be too high and which the landlord has to pay, and that keeps expenses high. The city raised the RE Tax, even while they were closed for the first year of the pandemic. When expenses are high, the landlord has to charge more rent.

@Mia L everything you said is so close to the truth. Here is what happened. We were forced into an unnecessary and ineffective lockdown. Full stop. The economy was DESTROYED for literally no reason. Then big box stores were allowed to stay open. small businesses shut their doors. Stay 6 ft apart decreased the number of workers you could have operating your business other wise the government would fine you. The reason everything is fucked forget is because of absolute retarded.

Yeah you definitely have no gains 😂😂😂

Yeah they could, but if we held our breath for it, we would all be dead.

They charge what the market will bear, clearly people are still paying these high prices

greed makes evil money pigs

just plant some potatoes and veggies. no need to spend what little money you have on garbage like bread

The Federal Reserve and the World Economic Forum's plan is the reason.

This is not a Capitalism problem; it is a Globalist plan to starve the world to get control of the population. Read the World Economic Forum's web site or watch some videos on the "Great Reset". "monopoly" is a video on Rumble that explains everything.

Plus the pandemic stimulis money needs to be paid back...nothing is for free.

Federal Reserve OWNS the government. The culprit is the Fed.

@@charlesritter6640 You are correct. The World Economic Forum's website tells us their plan. They have a plan to starve the world's population into submission. Now all they need is a war for an annual income. The Fed finances both sides of the war so they get rich no matter who wins.
