Are you considering changing jobs this year? If not, you’re in the minority. A survey conducted by Harris Poll found that the majority (52%) of U.S. workers are considering a job change this year – and 44% have real plans in place to make a change. Think about that. Picture your co-workers or your team. More than half are thinking about leaving.
On August 11th, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the Consumer Price Index increased 5.4% over the past 12 months. Shockingly, media outlets ran with absurd headlines like these: "Inflation is Not as Bad as Feared" and "Inflation Fears Moderate" and even this one: "Core Inflation Starts to Ease."
Inflation is defined as an increase in the general level of prices for goods and services and is measured by the Consumer Price Index, calculated every month by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
