About this episode
John Kenel discusses the manipulation of inflation and its impact on wealth distribution in New Zealand.
The government says inflation is 4%. Gold says it's 19% per year. Someone's lying, and it's not gold. Most people think inflation just means prices go up. But there's something much bigger happening, a 300-year-old trick that decides who gets rich and who gets left behind. When central banks create new money, it doesn't land in your bank account. It goes to governments, banks, and big institutions first. They buy assets before prices rise. By the time that money reaches your wages, everything costs more. This isn't bad luck or market forces. It's designed this way. And once you understand how money really enters the system, you'll stop blaming yourself and start protecting your wealth.
