S3lvah 295 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Is it currently affecting your daily life? Are you concerned for the future? Have you made any changes to your diet / travel / other habits to accommodate for the change?

Adam_ 1,148 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Effecting yes, I wouldn't say i've directly made any changes because of it but I started making some dietary changes a few months ago regardless If you buy/consume pretty much any product or buy/rent or plan to buy/rent any place to live it's affecting you though which I assume is pretty much everyone on these forums 1 Quote Link to comment https://tempest-rs.net/topic/7501-inflation-cost-of-living-increase/#findComment-226867 Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for me, I've lived pretty frugally anyway and had a decent stable income for a while, so as long as the Euro won't go the way of the Zimbabwean dollar, I'll be fine for quite a while. Counting my lucky stars for not growing up to be a drinker, smoker, partygoer or shopaholic.

Ace 632 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 It's having an effect for certain but I'll pull through. Prices on nearly everything are higher, and even then the local groceries where I live are still cleared out due to poor supply. No one that I know currently is travelling but I was never big on travelling anyways. I'm that awkward guy at my work who doesn't vacay four times a year mostly due to lack of interest and being cheap. I know what when the stores are going to be stocked up, and the increased prices don't really do anything to stop me from shopping besides hit my wallet harder. Not super worried about anything else really. Sucks that my savings are officially tanking at this point because I've slowly emptied my portfolio over the last 9-10 months but regardless of how heavy inflation gets, I still feel like holding on to my other assets would've been worse. 1 Quote Spoiler Link to comment https://tempest-rs.net/topic/7501-inflation-cost-of-living-increase/#findComment-226882 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Bazz 715 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 I haven't made any changes to my life and have the luxury that I don't have to for a long time. I'm going on vacation in September to the USA and I'm planning to do some driving...It will be interesting to see what the big fuss is about. I don't have a car and I don't need one so I 'save' a ton of money that others don't. I have noticed that my grocery expenses are going up which is weird because my diet is very consistent and has been for a year. It's gone from about 200-250 euro to 230-300 euro per month. 1 Quote The good old days ~ By B4uz ~ ~ By Ace ~ Link to comment https://tempest-rs.net/topic/7501-inflation-cost-of-living-increase/#findComment-226883 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atvdinner 386 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 I'm very concerned about the gas and oil prices effecting heating oil. The winters are long and cold here. Could be a winter I don't do anything due to having to put $600.00 usd a month in my tank. I'll get through, I'll just have to plan better. 1 Quote FUCK TEMPEST.

IMK 523 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 The only thing that has changed in my life due to inflation is my monthly cost of groceries - about $50-75 or so, depending what I eat that month (butter is fucking insane right now). No other rising costs have personally affected me (yet). 1 Quote Link to comment https://tempest-rs.net/topic/7501-inflation-cost-of-living-increase/#findComment-226940 Share on other sites More sharing options...
