Inflation Breaking Retirement Plans?

Inflation can eat into your retirement plan and even derail it. CPI stands for consumer price index. It is used in many economic metrics such as Real GDP of the country, calculation of social security payouts, and even TIPS (Treasury Inflation Protected Securities). TIPS is supposed to be protected against inflation but if CPI does not properly track real inflation, then the protection is just an illusion.

Hence, how CPI is calculated can affect a lot of real world payouts and the way it is calculated and cause it to be higher or lower than actual inflation that the consumer feels. It is probably safe to say that the past few years, inflation has been a lot higher than 2%. CPI currently shows it has spiked up to 5.4% in September of 2021 but even this increase is a bit optimistic.
