In recent years, there has been a lot of talk about how inflation is impacting different age groups. Some people believe that Millennials are hit the hardest by inflation, due to the rising cost of living and student loan debt. Quick personal loans make it difficult to save money, and the cost of key items like housing and healthcare continues to increase.
Millennials are definitely being hit hard though. Consumer prices, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index (CPI), are up 9.1% since July 2021. That includes a 10.4% increase in food prices and a 59.9% increase in the price of a gallon of gasoline.
Financial Stress is More Intense for Millennials
People in their 20s and 30s are building careers, establishing long-term relationships, and buying houses. The cost of doing those things was already high. In 2022, it's reached another level. Just putting gas in the car to go to work every day is a challenge. Younger millennials struggle more. They're still building their career path, so salaries are lower.
The housing market is also a concern. The American Dream of owning your own home is getting more unattainable for millennials as home values increase and inventory is still limited. Meanwhile, the Fed is raising interest rates to "curb" inflation, making it even more difficult to afford a new home. This eliminates a major wealth-building option for this generation.
Vacations are Becoming Less Affordable
Most people take a vacation when they're stressed out. Unfortunately, rising prices have made that almost impossible for some folks, particularly those early in their careers making less money. Who can afford to gas up the car and go on a road trip? Airfare used to be cheap, but planes use gas too. Airfare is up 25% since last year.
Even staycations are more expensive. Energy services (natural gas and electricity) are up 19.4% and it costs 12.2% more to eat at home this year. Sitting in front of the TV, blasting the air conditioner, and munching on refrigerator food sounds great. Paying for it won't relieve any financial stress. It's almost cheaper to go to work. Take-out food only went up 7.7%.
Shortages are Part of the "New Normal"
Baby boomers remember gas lines and recessions. Millennials got to see the longest bull market in history unfold during their entire adult lives. That was before the 2020 pandemic. This year, we're seeing supply line disruptions, slow economic recovery, and global conflict. Many have called the post-pandemic years the "new normal." Shortages are part of it.
Some of those shortages are internal because people simply can't afford what they could in the past. In some cases, items we once bought at the market are no longer in stock or are on backorder. The supermarket shelves have empty spaces on them. That's a new experience for millennials. Hopefully, we'll see that turnaround soon.

Intend™, a patient-centric healthcare management software provider, today announced support for Monkeypox Vaccinations on the Intend platform.

August 10, 2022 – London, Great Britain – Debbie Wingham, celebrity British Artist is in full swing on the production of her show The Most Expensive on Gossip Stone TV. Ferrari, Louis Vuitton, Cartier, Bulgari, all the international symbols of chick and luxury – this is the world of the Queen of all that is most expensive in the world. The world of wealth and fame attracts the curiosity of the public with its inaccessibility and exclusivity. What could be more appropriate? Real Royal music, of course!
The Platinum Jubilee held in celebration of Queen Elizabeth II only a month ago for her 70 years of service to the people of the United Kingdom was the occasion for the release of the Royal Jubilee Celebration album by Olga Thomas, composer and patron of British Monarchists Society.
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and Olga Thomas
Her music had such an effect on the heart and mind of Gossip Stone TV CEO and producer Victoria Unikel, that she decided to link the royal and luxury theme running throughout the show The Most Expensive, that this music must be present in the show to bookend each episode by accompanying the title and closing sequences. This music was graciously allowed to be used in the show by the author, Olga Thomas, herself. Gossip Stone TV, as an American TV channel, is honored to extend this tribute to the Queen as a sign of their great respect for British culture and tradition.
The Most Expensive reality TV show by Debbie Wingham
The star of this Gossip Stone TV show, Debbie Wingham, is herself a member of this exclusive world. For the first time ever, she will pull back the curtain and share with the viewers the secrets of the most expensive creations and of their owners.

Back to the Royal story – Olga Thomas, the Royal composer, has had a lifelong admiration and passion for the Royal family. Some years ago, the charity Cruse Bereavement Support began a unique music program, a tradition to give their patron, Her Majesty the Queen, special gifts of music composed by Olga to commemorate the important events in the life of the Royal Household. Since then, she has composed an impressive 15 pieces and has been lucky enough on three occasions to meet the Queen.
For the first time, Olga Thomas is delighted to bring together all her Royal compositions into one album release, which is titled Royal Platinum Jubilee Celebration with Olga Thomas. It is a true celebration of the Queen’s lifelong dedication and life’s work as a Monarch.

The album includes Cruse’s anthem ‘Restoring Hope’, ‘Themes of Life and Glory’, a tribute to The Queen Mother, ‘Royal Wedding (Celebration)’, an orchestral piece written to mark the marriage of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Other pieces include the anthem ‘Jubilation’ for the Diamond Jubilee, performed by Her Majesty’s Royal Marines Band Portsmouth (Royal Band) and Wynne Evans on vocals.

It featured British Soprano Lesley Garrett, Baritone Rodney Earl Clarke as well as the London Community Gospel Choir. All of these amazing songs are on this magnificent album and all released together for the first time, in what is a fitting tribute to Her Majesty the Queen.
“The Four British Nations music release is the sterling example of modern classical music and I’m so happy and proud that this music will be featured in the Gossip Stone TV channel show The Most Expensive by Debbie Wingham”, says Victoria Unikel.

Noting the acceleration of annual growth within the pet industry, The Well Groomed Franchise System (WGFS) announced today that franchise sales of its Well Groomed Pets salons are on pace to more than double earlier 2022 projections. The Company also announced today that nine new salons were recently sold in Texas and Arizona.
"The strong growth of the overall pet industry, specifically pet adoption and pet ownership, has created a very favorable business environment for pet support services like dog grooming," said Roger Lloyd, President of WGFS Franchise Operations.
Well Groomed Pets salons, the Company's retail wellness and grooming franchise salons are largely powered by proprietary software that provides a high-touch, high-tech client experience. In addition, the technology automates many of the grooming salons' operational burdens allowing owners to scale into multiple stores quickly.
"Technology is one of our unique differentiators," added Lloyd. "Our goal is to be the most profitable franchise company in the pet industry. Leveraging technology is the key and we have built a solution that addresses a number of industry pain points including scalability."
The salon environments also offer the industry's highest standards for safety. All dogs are required to have all vaccinations up to date (Rabies, Parvo, Distemper and Bordetella) and every grooming staff member must pass the American Kennel Club's Safe Certification test with a score of 90% or better.
"The growing trend of dog socialization through community dog parks introduces a growing risk of disease contagion. Well Groomed Pets sets a high bar for wellness and we want every pet parent to know that Well Groomed Pets' salons are the safest in their community," said Lloyd.
