Inflation is eroding purchasing power, even for those who make no financial mistakes. See how Johnny the capybara is affected.

Johnny has held onto his 50 grasses for a year, thinking he was secure. Last year, that savings bought him a full week of bread, fruit, and treats. Today, those same 50 grasses only secure four days of basic bread. This isn't the result of gambling or poor spending habits; it is a clear example of how rising costs impact our daily lives.

We examine how the value of currency shifts over time and why holding assets does not always guarantee the same standard of living. By looking at Johnny's simple budget, we can better understand the mechanics of price increases and the reality of economic decline.
