So IYO, or just provide FACTS with a link.
What was that inflation number in 2024?

What is the current YTD number in 2025?


This is an easy task.
Don't tell me to look it up myself, it's up to YOU to post the DATA.

The figures are the same now. SweetTea is correct. 2025 will likely be lower.

Why are you afraid to post the numbers?

I'm not. It's 2.9% on both counts.

Average inflation for 2024 was 2.9%. 2025 to date is 2.68% through Sept. If the rate is 3.0 for the remaining 3 months of this year, the average will be 2.77%, lower than 2024.

So where are we at?

I seriously have 900K invested, and I wish the greatest Success.
But I want Mashmont to tell me how much I'm winning.

Let's see how it plays out.

Are we playing out as......Great.
I'm in.

I realize 900K is nowhere near your worth, but it is good for me.
Oh, noted that is just part of my funds, I still have Pension and SS.

Best wishes for you Mashmont.

Hell, something like 50% of the American population cannot afford a $1000 emergency.

Is that because they are paying $0 in net federal taxes?
