This episode packs a punch as our host teams up with special guest Jacqueline to tackle one of today’s hottest topics: the rising cost of living. From sky-high grocery bills to jaw-dropping mortgage rates, nothing is off the table!We rewind to the 1980s and fast-forward to today, busting myths about whether life is really more expensive now. Along the way, we compare home sizes, wages, and lifestyles, and uncover a shocking stat — mortgage rates hit a whopping 16.06% in 1982.Through real-life stories, sharp insights, and plenty of “wait… what?!” moments, Jacqueline and the host explore how inflation shapes our daily lives, how modern expenses stack up, and what today’s interest rates could mean for the future.If you’ve ever wondered “How are we supposed to afford this?” — this episode is for you.
