Frequently Asked Questions

What is purchasing power?

Purchasing power is the amount of goods/services you can buy with a given amount of money at a specific time.

Why does purchasing power decrease?

Inflation causes prices to rise over time, so the same money buys less goods/services in the future.

How to protect purchasing power?

Invest in assets that grow faster than inflation: stocks, real estate, inflation-indexed bonds.
