Dave and Reb welcome Brent Vandermeer, financial advisor from CrossPoint Financial, to this episode of “Let’s Talk Money with Dave and Reb.” With inflation rising, the cost of goods increasing, and income often not keeping pace, questions around long-term investing are on the minds of many. On today’s show, they talk about what inflation means, and what considerations need to be made in investment portfolios. Their discussion takes place alongside Jesus’ words in Mark 8 to remember and understand that we have a heavenly Father who is good and provides for us.
As people are feeling the crunch of earnings not keeping up with inflation, people are also considering how to decrease or cut costs, as well as increase earnings. That can involve looking at savings and investments. Right now, that includes increasing awareness of how inflation will affect investments down the road. People who have not considered higher risk investments may need to do so as investments need to grow in such a way as to keep desired standards of living at certain levels.
