Ep. 151 - Yes, You Can Really Make (almost) 10% With This Safe Investment

Let me know if this sounds like a dream come trie:

 

You can purchase a safe investment, guaranteed by the government,  and make almost 10% return. (Does that exist?)

 

I’m sure you saw the headline last week that said in March the CPI is up 8.5% from 1 year ago.  That is the fast annual gain since December 1981.

 

What does that mean?

 

CPI is a measure of the price of goods and services we purchase - it is a measure of inflation.
