While growing up things were quite easy, an I also know that life was also easy for the common man, not until 2018 that things start changing for the worst, from then till now the rate at which inflation have struck my country to an all time high is so alarming.
Everyday price of things keeps on changing but the salaries of a civil servants still remain the same, the money that we use too feed from, buy water, pay rent, pay for light an even save from, now it can't even service our monthly needs for even half of the month.
Most times I feel for people that have many children because too get basic needs in today's economy is very difficult,
the annoying part is that the government an it agencies are doing nothing or less about the cost control of goods and services in the state.
An this has created a torn in the lives of many as situations keeps on getting worse by the day.
Am wondering if it's same experience in other part of the world.

That is true in the past things were quite easy and the lifestyle is not that expensive. As time goes by in the increase of inflation all around the world, life is now getting harder because of the high cost of living. Food prices nowadays is very expensive as well as electricity, water, internet charges, post paid lines, even the tuition fees at school etc. Todays economy is very difficult especially to less fortunate people. Here in our country mostly minimum wage increase a small portion of their salary but still it is not sustainable to their needs. For the above minimum wage the salary remains the same no movement at all that is why it is hard for regular employees to manage their finances with the increase in prices of basic necessities the salary did not even get higher. Everyday is getting worst, but if we will find some other option maybe we could survive.

a government employee still complains about the current situation, what about factory workers. Currently inflation is indeed high and even though there is a salary increase it is not proportional to the amount of inflation that occurs. and of course we must be aware of reducing our lifestyle and looking for other sources of income outside of working hours, so we must learn to cope with increasingly difficult economic problems. everyone has their own problems, and gratitude that can make us enjoy life beautifully
