What is a common effect of high inflation on savings? (2023)
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Understand what inflation is. Inflation means that prices of goods and services are rising.
Step 2: Realize that when prices go up, the money you have today can buy less in the future.
Step 3: Know that savings are usually kept in a bank account, where they earn interest.
Step 4: If inflation is high, the interest earned on savings may not keep up with the rising prices.
Step 5: This means that the actual value of your savings (what you can buy with it) decreases over time.
Step 6: Because of this, people may feel discouraged to save money, as it loses value.
