  1. Medical costs of all forms are up 4.3% YOY. Housing costs are actually higher weighted and a larger mover (which I was surprised about). Education is actually a pretty big mover too with a fairly high weight.

    My concern is the commodities going forward. Eventually $8 soybeans and $4.50-ish corn will catch up with us. :)

  4. Ah, but the investor-types stay glued to the CNBC talking/yakking heads - a good thing for traders.

    yep corn at a 10 year high.

    I do the food shopping and I can tell you food has gone up alot in the last 2 years.

    As for medical costs, they will never come down and school, hahah, what a joke that is. The cost of living is going through the roof yet the only thing the average person can do is either get a better job or get a second job to just barely make it in this inflationary environment.
