Inflation--- a very synonymous term that all of us would have come across at some point or the other in our life. But of late i’ve actually started to feel the pinch of Inflation—some thing I never bothered about before.

Not a single day used to pass then without my mom complaining about the rising prices and about my dad cribbing about how he’s going to manage resources (Yeah right was in my college days then) All the time I used to think that my parents were jus another bunch of people who always found fault with the ongoings of the world (I’m sure u would’ve felt the same about ur parents as well).My college life used to be rocking without any botheration whatsoever. . All I was bothered was only about my pocket money and fuel in my bike (Life was so easy then).

Now that I’m employed and earn a decent amount of money (Apart from the few commitments I have) I was actually thinking that I was free and can do whatever I feel like(In terms of spending and things like that) but little did I realize that I was just another person who was going to be affected by what I didn’t even have a clue about . Nowdays I have to be wary of everything I do. Going to decent restaurants (leave alone the expensive ones) buy a beer or two from a club, go for a movie(my dad still laughs when I tell him that I end up spending about 300 for a movie), take a girl out(Oh my god!!!) everything absolutely everything. Even the fancy discount boards at the malls don’t excite me much (Not anymore), so much so that I’ve started to feel the pinch whenever I take a ride on my bike.

I have to plan my expenses (Something I never thought I would do---for god sake I’m just 22yrs). Worse still save a little ---yeah sounds funny but remember tomorrow is only gonna get worse. And incase I plan a small trip that’s it---the end of the world probably for the next two or three months I have to plan my expenses and sort them out a zillion times(ask me ---just went on a short trip to Mumbai and god only knows when ll get out of the financial shock---lol)

This blog is not about how about the technical stuff involved about how Inflation rises what effects it has on the economy and stuff like that. I’m just trying to try and tell people how I’ve been affected by a term that didn’t make sense to me until a month ago.

Its just the way I feel and I’m sure there thousands and thousands who’d quite agree with me. I know there’s little that can be done but perhaps I just another person in the world who just cribs about the ongoings of the world.
