Inflation's Impact on Retirement Savings

So inflation affects your retirement savings because it makes prices go up over time

which means that your money doesn't go as far retirees usually live on fixed incomes or

savings that means if your pension or retirement account doesn't grow faster than inflation then

your money buys less and less every year retirees need more medical Care as they get older

and healthcare prices go up faster than regular inflation so retirees have to save way way

more than the used to to live comfortably.
