☆ I grew up in poverty, but I'm doing 3 things to build my wealth and fight inflation
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-14 | by ( Taryn Williams | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

To fight inflation, I'm earning more money with side hustles and diversifying my investments. Even though I'm making more money now, I'm not spending more money. As someone who grew up without financial stability, I've been motivated to create a safety net for myself. These accounts typically accrue far more interest than traditional savings accounts, helping savings keep pace with inflation. It's easier to stay ahead of inflation when I'm not buying more than I need and when I'm using resources like coupons to my advantage.

In his meeting with GOP lawmakers, Trump called the Department of Justice “dirty no good bastards,” according to another source in the room.

Experts say that this previously overlooked gemstone is rocketing in desirability and value, as collectors look beyond the so-called “Big Four’” (diamonds, emeralds, rubies and sapphires) for more affordable, niche gemstones that may just be a shrewd investment. “Spinels and Paraiba tourmalines have seen a steady increase in demand over the last decade.”Boghossian's paraiba and diamond set features paraibas and fancy yellow diamonds. Experts posit that only one Paraiba tourmaline is mined for every 10,000 diamonds — and while similar hues are found in Madagascar, the scarcity of Brazilian stones has seen prices soar. At Bonhams, Tonkin said prices for top-quality Paraiba tourmalines reached $75,000 per carat in 2022, compared with $4,800 per carat in 2009. “These incredibly vibrant, clean gemstones really stirred something in me,” she explained in an email.

Geopolitical empires like Russia and China are, meanwhile, resurgent and threatening to obliterate the global system dominated by Western values that has prevailed since World War II. Trump’s “America First” philosophy has taken deep root in the Republican Party that once prided itself on winning the Cold War. For many years after World War II, D-Day commemorations lacked the fanfare and high diplomatic and political significance they carry today. The speech came at a particularly contentious moment in the Cold War with tensions high between Washington and the Soviet Union.
