    I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.

      Things are strange right now. The US dollar is becoming less valuable because of inflation, but it's getting stronger compared to other currencies and things like gold and property. People are turning to the dollar because they think it's safer. I'm worried about my retirement savings of about $420,000 losing value because of high inflation. Where else can we keep our money?

      It's often true that people underestimate the importance of financial advisors until they feel the negative effects of emotional decision-making. I remember a few summers ago, after a tough divorce, when I needed a boost for my struggling business. I researched and found a licensed advisor who diligently helped grow my reserves despite inflation. Consequently, my reserves increased from $275k to around $750k.

With their "Too Big To Fail" banks (aka fascism). This is why they are so aggressively working to buy politicians and pushing the WEF policies.

Average wealth per citizen is greater than almost any other developed country(that is through the lens of personal wealth vs. cost of living). They run pretty lean businesses over there and don't like taking on debt, so I'm not sure how much luck private equity has convincing the highest potential to take it on. If anything, we should be moving there rather than seeding their businesses.
