Inflation and its Impact on Younger Generations
Inflation rates may have fallen, but prices remain stubbornly high, impacting the affordability of basic necessities. This phenomenon highlights the concept of inflation as a hidden tax and contributes to a sense of hopelessness among younger generations. The high cost of living and the perception that long-term financial success is unattainable have led to a trend of "soft saving" among Gen Z. Inflation is perceived as a significant barrier to saving for the future, causing younger people to prioritize immediate experiences instead.
