Indeed - inflation is an aggregate measure and it definitely doesn’t apply equally across all individuals, in terms of impact.
Recognizing my own privilege here, for me, for example, many of my expenses are fixed: student loans and mortgage take the lion’s share of our monthly cash flow after taxes and retirement. Neither of those are indexed to inflation so if this drives higher cost of living increases, it’s a net win for me, in all likelihood.
