Summary
A recent report found that 64% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck due to high inflation. To help manage their budgets, people should plan their meals, wait 24 hours before making online purchases, use price-tracking browser extensions, and pay with cash-back cards. Additionally, they should invest in short-term, relatively risk-free Treasury bonds and federal I bonds to hedge against inflation.
