Inflation is a silent assassin, save ur money by investing in equities. #Sukhanidhi 🧘‍♂️🧘‍♀️

In 1903, the Taj Hotel, Mumbai 1-Night stay used to cost ₹ 6, & the same stay today cost us ₹ 𝟭𝟴𝟬𝟬𝟬+.

In 118 yrs, at an avg rate of 7% inflation pa, prices hav gone up by 3k times. https://t.co/LDx9iIzlPh

One of the richest man in India suggests we “beat” inflation by going back in time. How about the top 1% give out their money equitably to the rest of the country and perhaps then we could think about going back in time. https://t.co/ald6cO1eFs
