Default Re: What\'s your retirement nut?

I agree with the posts about some people underestimating inflation. Inflation for IMPORTANT needs like housing, food, medical, transportation, utilities have gone up a lot more than 2-3% and I don't see why it wouldn't continue in the future. It annoys me how many books brush off inflation lightly when it can seriously damage anyone's assets, considering the compounding of it after many years.
