Sadly, no. Inflation rates are increasing at a much quicker rate than all our salaries. This is one of those things I would love to be proven wrong in, though!

I surely hope so too! Historical data for my career in my city, someone my year of experience was only making ~7k less than I am now in 2010. No wonder those people were 'rich'!

The way things are going, it sure doesn't seem likely..

Not unless corporate greed relaxes. Unless something changes soon, I'm afraid we'll end up seeing hyperinflation. I kept hoping that things were going to go back down, but there's still the upward trend that is just shocking.

Sure, eventually, but it's a drowning rat experiment. Give a rat (us) "hope" of a "rescue", and the rat will swim (produce) for potentially days before finally succumbing and dying.

Sadly no. I think that companies are greedy and they don't want to pay their employees what they are worth and therefore keeping mroe money in their own pockets.

Anyone knows how alimony works ? In terms of salary ? How much more than your partner do you need to make, to be granted alimony...

In some cases, for life.

I would appreciate any input!!!!
