🛡️ How to beat the thief: Cash sitting in a savings account earning below-inflation rates loses real value daily. An index fund tracking the broad market has historically returned 7-10% annually — 4-6% above inflation. Even beating inflation by 2% on $100k compounds to $22k more in real terms over 10 years.

The live counter is illustrative — actual purchasing power loss depends on your personal spending basket, which rarely tracks the official CPI exactly.
