The CPI can be damn boring to talk about, but it's one of those items that come up during retirement planning so I feel the need to discuss it once in a while. Anjo, Now that would be a scary thought. Hazy, Great line. It really is a guessing game. Andrew, I don't recall your email and I can't see to find anything in my inbox. Perhaps my spam filter got it. Could you re-send your email please? Thanks, Tim Ramona,

Hazy,

Great line. It really is a guessing game.

Andrew,

I don't blame them for being cautious. My thinking has also been affected by this. The Bank of Canada has been more involved with inflation control over the last 15 years or so,so maybe that has kept inflation lower.Of course there are limitations to what the Gov't can do. Like so much about retirement planning,its a guessing game. A lot of people at retirement age have lived through the 70′s and 80′s.

I just can't get worked up about the CPI, inflation, the price of gas, the descent of BCE, on and on and on. My husband told me long ago that the media hypes this stuff in order to cause fear in people, and that is what drives them to do what they do. Now he's not an economist or a planner, but it makes a lot of sense to me what he says. And after my rambling thoughts, keep up the good blog. Even if my eyes glaze over, I'll be back tomorrow.....
