Inflation Continues To Weigh Americans Down

A new Gallup pole, discussed in Americans Remain Discouraged About Personal Finances, indicates that Americans continue to worry about their financial health. The poll included a new open ended question asking “respondents to name the most important financial problem facing their family.” Thirty-five percent of Americans responded that inflation is their cheif concern. Sixty-six percent of Americans say they worry they won’t have enough for retirement and sixty percent worry about medical costs.
