Exactly! And the salaries aren’t increasing at the same rate. It’s becoming harder to save money.
True. But I think the government is trying to control inflation by adjusting interest rates. The central bank increased them recently to slow down spending.Maverick wrote: Wed Mar 19, 2025 2:23 amExactly! And the salaries aren’t increasing at the same rate. It’s becoming harder to save money.
But won’t that make loans more expensive? If businesses and people stop borrowing, it could slow down economic growth too.Kai wrote: Wed Mar 19, 2025 2:24 amTrue.

That’s the tricky part. It’s a balance between controlling inflation and keeping businesses growing. If prices rise too much, people can’t afford basic goods. But if interest rates are too high, businesses struggle to expand.Maverick wrote: Wed Mar 19, 2025 2:25 amBut won’t that make loans more expensive?

Well, some economists say that increasing productivity and reducing unnecessary government spending can help. Others argue for more investment in industries that create jobs.Maverick wrote: Wed Mar 19, 2025 2:28 amSo, what’s the solution?Kai wrote: Wed Mar 19, 2025 2:27 amThat’s the tricky part.
