Soaring inflation is throwing retirees' budgets into chaos | CNN Business

At a card table there, CNN met with a group of seniors, all on fixed incomes, who spoke about feeling the squeeze from steep price hikes over the past year. Katherine Janes, 81, said she had to turn to her son for financial help. “It makes things a little easier,” Janes said. “Everything is expensive.” Ron Longhurst cut back on evening socializing, which has been difficult as a single 79-year-old. “Day-to-day, I stay home more,” he said.

” They already have some boxes packed, expecting another rent hike when their lease ends early next year. Johnson, a retired university counselor, and her husband, a retired engineer and teacher, moved to Florida from Michigan three years ago, bringing along her sister and nephew to live with them. The family would like to buy a home, but the draining price hikes and red-hot housing market are making that more difficult. Johnson says they may have to downsize as a result.

The goal is for our elders to miserably die sooner. Of course, we are going to blame covid when life expectancy continues to decline even further.
