In this week’s episode of The Wealth Blend, we dive into the financial pressures that are affecting various aspects of life today. First, we explore the growing concerns of teenagers as rising prices are set to impact their holiday shopping plans, with many feeling the pinch of inflation this season. Next, we tackle the issue of "friendflation," where maintaining friendships has become too costly for many Americans in a world of inflation and increased expenses. Finally, we discuss the toll caregiving can take on personal finances, as many caregivers are finding themselves stressed, exhausted, and lacking adequate retirement savings. Join us for a look at how these financial pressures are shaping the lives of everyday Americans. All of our socials and podcasts: https://linktr.ee/crossshield
