Sure, but on HN we can only talk about CPI, as that's what every government reports and it's something we can easily compare. We can't compare each other's own inflation because we live in different countries and have different jobs, expenses, lifestyles, etc. We all know "the real inflation I'm feeling is higher than the one reported by the government" trope but there's nothing we can do about it here and now. The RON has not moved against the EURO.
