Inflation is producing a slew of problems throughout the world, including food shortages, diesel and heating fuel shortages, and housing prices and financial market crash. This global collapse might end up being a part of us for a very long time. With inflation currently at about 9%, my primary concern is how to maximize my savings/retirement fund of about $300k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains.

As a health care professional I can tell you that the NHS money is going to the privet sector, an NHS ER nurse get payed 23 Pounds an hour meanwhile an agency nurse in the ER gets 50+ pounds an hour! And every unit have agency nurses and doctors ( Just imagine how much an agency Dr earns per hour) the biggest pay checks goes to the privet sector and that’s why the staff rather work for an agency then the government. This is no secret !

The same cost of living crisis is happening to us in Australia. I believe a major contributing factor was the privatization of Utility companies of water, power and gas. The government has to buy them back, as it's in the private companies interest to raise prices. The environmental trend, and the lack of gas due to the Ukraine war hasn't helped also . Household utilities supply should be seen as a necessity for living, not a luxury. Also the government shouldn't always rely on taxes, but reclaim the steady income income from utilities that it used to have.

Yes Universal Credit is only £83.00 per week that wouldn't be enough to live off if you had to take the cost of Rent,Gas, Electric so that is why you get housing support money for your rent. And those who believe that there is those who are of working age are benefit scroungers is misleading propaganda spread by the government & media. In fact pensioners get more benefits than those who are only getting the £334.91 per month because I know pensioners who are getting £185.00 per week in addition to housing benefit and £150 taken off their electric bill before the £400 ( that most people are getting) and because they are on pension credit they are getting the cost of living payments and also £200 per year being topped to £500( those on Universal credit don't get that) also pensioners get a extra £10 ( those on Universal credit don't get that either) and a extra £25 whenever there's low temperatures ( those on working age means tested benefits don't get that) the majority of the benefits paid out are to pensioners so it's the pensioners that are the true benefit scroungers.

It's true, but I can see why most people are demotivated. I know people who worked 3 - 5 years in different minimum wage/slightly above minimum jobs in hopes of gaining skills and moving up. For most it doesn't happen and they are stuck in loop where you save very little. Now people who go to uni, they often find themselves that the job market is oversaturated and since there is so many graduates employers get away with paying low wages, unless you picked very niche area and you are one of the lucky ones to actually get hired after your education. Most freshmen are not lucky to work in their area and have to pick dead end jobs for survival and it's hard to get out of that loop. Gone the days where you could buy a house for near minimum wage and you had no trouble getting a good job because you are a graduate. Is spending life on benefits better? No, unless you are satisfied with never having money for anything than bare minimum and always worrying about the debt. I can see why those people can be demotivated to work when work simply doesn't pay as it used to

@@alexandrabellerose3550 For sure i can see why people are demotivated, when i was growing up My parents would have fallen into the unskilled work category, they both worked hard and bought a house. This was in the 80's before minimum wages were introduced and university was typically for people who needed to study for a profession. It was a struggle, but the hard work paid off. In my opinion the introduction of a minimum wage was just another bad idea, yes people get paid more but then basic goods and services also increase in price to offset company cost's and it closes the pay gap between unskilled and skilled work. A person working checkout in a grocery store working 50 hours a week will make more than a teacher, add to that the teacher's student loan repayments and out of hours marking, lesson planning and the fact that a professional worker still can't afford a home these days, why bother putting in the effort. Universities today are more about making money, a vast number of useless fields to study that only require hands on experience and 0 theory.

im basically living off of chilli, stew and chicken saag eaten with potatoes at the moment as its easy to bulk cook it for fairly cheap, provides all the protein fat and carbs as well as nutrients. Ive been buying my meat in bulk, everything in bulk really, and im still paying around the same amount monthly as I did when i ate more freely with more variety. the price of even the cheapest cuts of meat is astonishing. I supplement the saag with chickpeas and the stew and chilli with beans to stretch a 4 portion serving to 8. It's a nightmare. I dont want a massive house, or need a garden and fancy furniture and all the niceties you can buy nowadays. I just want a home to call my own and enough money to eat well and not worry about my bills. I'm only 30 and I'm in terror of my retirement. I never got a chance to get any sort of foothold in life and what I do have npw is being whittled away. I dont see the point anymore. I've already sworn off ever having kids as there is no way I could ever afford them and I'm not selfish enough to do that, so that's taken from me, what next?

Yes more money is going into the NHS but then the NHS is being forced by government to contract with private providers for services that used to be "in house". This means that all that money and more is leaving the NHS as soon as it goes in. The profit making parts have been cherry picked and forcibly farmed out to the private sector who's services cost 2 and 3 times as much. Sunnack went to America to talk with giant US health insurers so we see where this is leading.

Contrary to what Ethan says, higher education should absolutely be free for all, as it is in the EU. This is how, despite my average income, I was able to send two children through university debt-free. Both are now gainfully employed in industry in Germany. Without free further education, Europe simply cannot compete with e.g. the Chinese and Indians in the vital high-tech sector. Now that the UK has also been cut off from scientific cooperation with the EU as a result of Brexit, it is already falling far behind. Certainly, there are a few success stories that certain people hold on to and present as proof of success, but in the Netherlands and Germany, for example, every small town has several of those. This type of investment in the future is doubly worthwhile .

If worked a comparable number of hours (some weeks in excess of 60 hours per week) I’d earn as much at Aldi. I buy my own resources and those for the children so that I can do my job properly.

Having a general election won't solve the problem. Remember there was a financial crash in 2008 under Labour so it's a combination of government and the commercial system that is to blame. Even with a change of government as long as we depend on a commercial system there's going to be economic issues because they are both responsible for the situation.

The argument from tories tends to be trickle down theory, which is why they don't increase inheritance tax on incredibly wealthy families, corporation tax or even just closing tax loopholes on nom doms. If they make money, they increase the workers wages. The problem is, they don't. They make money then keep it, never sharing it with the workers who helped make that wealth. If there was an effort to make this happen (and I mean make not just hope employers will do the right thing) then perhaps the cost of living can be softened considerably.

That's not uncommon but on average, the private sector is getting pay rises than the public sector. The problem is that the average can be distorted by some highly paid jobs in London going up really fast even while pay for jobs elsewhere stagnates.

Public sector pay scales are transparent, regulated and negotiated by pay setting bodies and unions. By contrast, private sector pay is opaque, minimally regulated (living wage) and negotiated by individual workers. This means that public sector pay tends to vary comparatively less about the average, where as private sector pay suffers from more inequality, with significant proportions of workers earning both more and less than the average (mean), which is why *median* pay is a better indicator.
