This is the last episode of Season 1, in which Caitlin asks Sara if gas will soon cost $15 a gallon, what is the point of anything? Sara explains how inflation typically works in the US, and shares the bananas cure for high prices: EVEN HIGHER PRICES. How the F are we supposed to pretend we’re saving for our future if it seems like we’ll never be able to afford a hamburger again, much less retirement? Sara shares a few strategies to keep our eyes on the prize, even if we're gonna be grasping our suspenders for a while. Oh and there’s some stuff in there about how you really need to know about finances even if you’re married and your spouse takes care of it all. This week, the one thing Women on the Verge of a Financial Breakthrough can do TODAY to take the first, or next, step towards building a strong financial future is taking a hard look at how much cash you've stored up so you’re not losing more value than you have to with high inflation.
