Inflation is the biggest tax Canadians never voted for – and most people don't even realize they're paying it. On today's episode, Darren and Christina expose how inflation erodes purchasing power, widens the wealth gap, and punishes Canadians who don't own assets.

We break down:

  • Why CPI numbers are manipulated and misleading

  • How governments use inflation to repay debt with cheaper dollars

  • The REAL reason housing, groceries, and energy feel up 30–200%

  • Asset inflation vs consumer inflation — and why the rich get richer

  • Why wages never keep up

  • The "perfect storm" that crushed everyday Canadians

Then we show you the 4-step blueprint to beat inflation using the Infinite Banking Concept, including:

  • Keeping your savings ahead of inflation

  • Reducing taxes legally

  • Buying more assets using policy loans

  • Protecting yourself from market crashes

  • PLUS the bonus step: creating generational wealth

If you want to escape inflation, eliminate tax drag, and start building REAL wealth the way wealthy families do… this episode is a must-watch.
