most people are so retarded with money, they come from generations of financial losers who dont understand basic concepts like this, and are always on the losing side of inflation, because they have no investments or assets, they just live paycheck to paycheck and their entire interaction with money starts and ends with getting a paycheck and paying bills. wealthy people benefit from inflation because it causes higher profits, causes the value of their investments to go up, and widens the gap between them and the plebs who dont own anything
